What should I do if I absolutely have to look after my children?

Following the temporary closure of crèches and schools until further notice, parents who are unable to home work may be granted paid sick leave, under certain conditions:

• They must have a child under 16 years of age (18 years of age for children with disabilities in a specialised establishment)
• Be affiliated to the Social Services Compensation Fund
• The other parent must not be in a situation of total temporary layoff

All the information and forms you need to obtain compensation for looking after children at home are available on the Monaco Social Security Funds website.
