In particular, a citizen employed at a medical and sanitary unit in Navoi appealed to the Ombudsman regarding violations of his labour rights, including the incorrect calculation of temporary incapacity benefits.

Based on a request from the Ombudsman’s Regional Representative, the appeal was examined in cooperation with the Main Department for Poverty Reduction and Employment of Navoi Region. An internal investigation established that, due to an error in accounting calculations, the temporary incapacity benefit had not been paid.

Taking into account that the payment had been delayed for 1,019 days, its payment was ensured in accordance with the requirements of Article 333 of the Labour Code. In addition, the salary multiplier coefficient established for the responsible employee who had made the error was cancelled.

In another appeal, N.T., a stateless person residing in Navoi Region, requested practical assistance from the Ombudsman after encountering difficulties in enrolling her child, born in 2019, in a general education school.

The matter was examined by the Regional Representative in cooperation with the relevant education authorities. As a result, the child’s admission to the first grade was ensured.

In addition, citizen M.B. requested assistance in recovering arrears that had arisen due to alimony payments being made in an insufficient amount.

The matter was examined by the Ombudsman’s Regional Representative in cooperation with the territorial department of the Bureau of Compulsory Enforcement. A recalculation of the alimony payments established that arrears were outstanding.

Following this, the relevant demand was sent to the accounting department of the organisation where the debtor is employed. The alimony arrears were recovered, and the transfer of the funds to the applicant’s bank card was ensured.
