The salary (maternity allowance) is equal to 80% of the average daily wage, calculated based on the paycheck for the last few months worked. Some contracts may provide for 100% integration.

How do you calculate the amount of the allowance? The amount corresponds to 80% of the average daily wage, calculated on the basis of the paycheck for the last months worked (usually the last 12 months). This means that the INPS pays 80% of the worker's salary for the entire duration of the mandatory leave (5 months in total). What happens to the remaining 20%? It depends on the employment contract: If provided for by the national collective agreement (CCNL), the employer can supplement the allowance, bringing it up to 100% of the salary. This happens, for example, in the public sectors and in some private contracts (such as banks, metalworkers, commerce, etc.). If the contract does not include integrations, the worker will receive only 80% of the salary during the leave.
