The trade union organization has the right to give each employee a gift for one child, not exceeding 8% of the value of the subsistence minimum established by the state for a given year and for each region of the country. A gift whose value significantly exceeds the statutory limit is taxed on income (13%).

Each trade union cell has its own internal Regulation, in which all the points regarding the New Year's presents are clearly stated. For example, a gift can be expressed in the form of a certificate for the purchase of goods in a particular store for children, as well as in the form of an invitation to a Christmas tree.
