On May 27, People’s Deputy from the «Servant of the People» party, Serhiy Hryvko, registered in the Verkhovna Rada draft law No. 15281 on amendments to the Labor Code — regarding the introduction of a mandatory break for psychological relief.
He suggests taking a break of up to 20 minutes. It can be used for meditation, breathing exercises, physical activity, or any other activity aimed at relaxation. These 20 minutes will be added to the working time — in effect, extending the working day.
There is a nuance: the break is not provided automatically, but with the consent of the employer at the request of the employee. «Caring for the psycho-emotional state of employees is an important condition for effective and safe work in modern conditions,» explained Hryvko on his Facebook page.
