What percentage of salary is the funeral expenses calculated?

A, the funeral expenses calculation standard

Funeral expenses = the average monthly salary of employees in the last year where the court of appeal is located ×6 months.

It is worth noting that this calculation formula is a legal standard. Even if the expenses for handling the funeral of the deceased exceed the sum of the average monthly salary of employees in the last year where the Court of Appeal is located, the injurer does not have to pay the excess, and the family of the deceased shall bear it by itself.

Second, the legal basis

The Supreme People's Court's Interpretation of Several Issues Concerning the Application of Law in the Trial of Personal Injury Compensation Cases

Twenty-seventh funeral expenses shall be calculated according to the average monthly salary of employees in the last year where the court of appeal is located, and the total amount shall be six months.

From this perspective, the specific amount of compensation for funeral expenses will change every year. This requires relevant parties to pay attention to the annual average monthly salary standard of employees in your area.

Third, the standard of funeral expenses for retirees

China has made the following provisions on the treatment standards for employees and retirees after their death:

1, enterprise employees and retirees due to illness or non-work-related death treatment:

(1) Funeral subsidies and one-time relief funds for immediate family members shall be paid in one lump sum according to the average social wages of this municipality for the last three months and 10 months.

(two) to support immediate family members, according to the sum of local living difficulties subsidy standards and price subsidies, monthly payment to everyone.

(3) If the immediate family members are widowed, the living allowance shall be paid at 200% of the living allowance standard for the employees of local urban enterprises every month.

2. If the immediate family members of employees die, the funeral subsidy will be paid according to the average social wage 1 month in the previous year, regardless of age.

3 enterprise retirees died of illness or non-work-related death, according to the relevant treatment of the death of retirees of state organs to pay:

(1) The funeral expenses shall be paid to 600 yuan in one lump sum.

(2) One-time relief fund is paid according to my basic retirement pension (basic salary, grade salary, post salary and seniority salary) 10 month.

(3) If the dependent immediate family members who meet the living difficulties subsidy conditions live in urban areas (including development zones and towns), they will receive a monthly subsidy of 1 10 yuan, and at the same time, they will be given a price subsidy.

In different areas, according to the death of citizens, the compensation standard of funeral expenses is different at this time. At the same time, we should also combine the cause of death of the deceased. Even if the cause of death is the same and the actual year of death is different, it may affect the final amount of funeral expenses.
