Abstract
Objective: Amid the COVID-19 pandemic in the Russian Federation, social care providers received incentives such as bonuses and welfare payments. The study examines the association between COVID-19 pandemic indicators and distribution of incentives to care providers in Russia.
Methods: To test the hypotheses, regression analysis is employed.
Results: Hypothesis H1, regarding the correlation between the COVID-19 case rate in a specific region of the Russian Federation and the actual monetary amount of bonus payments compensating for challenging working conditions of care workers in that region is supported. Hypotheses H2-H3, regarding the relationship between the COVID-19 cases/recovery rate and the monetary amount of special welfare payments to care workers distributed across the country during a given calendar month are also supported. Hypothesis H4, pertaining to the relationship between the Fiscal Year End and the monetary amount of special welfare payments distributed throughout the country to care providers during a given calendar month, is likewise supported.
Conclusion: There is a correlation between payments to social care providers and coronavirus pandemic indicators (Tab. 5, Ref. 31). Text in PDF www.elis.sk Keywords: welfare payment, bonus, care providers.
