央视网消息：生育津贴按什么标准发放？大概能领多少呢？领了生育津贴单位还需支付产假工资吗？ 生育津贴按照职工所在单位上年度职工月平均工资计发，免征个人所得税。生育津贴=（参保职工本人终止妊娠之月所在用 人单位月缴费平均工资÷30天）×产假天数。总体来说，生育女职工年龄偏小，入职年限较短，一般其所在单位平均工资要高于本 人工资，因此女职工得到的生育津贴往往高于其本人工资。 领了生育津贴 单位还需支付产假工资吗？ 如果女职工在休产假期间已经享受了生育津贴、医疗补贴等待遇，生育津贴高于员工平均工资，则企业不用再向其支付产假 工资；低于平均工资，则公司需要补足差额。如果企业未给员工缴纳生育保险的，员工可以要求企业支付产假工资。 未婚生育是否享有生育津贴待遇？ 女性的生育产假是法定的，只要有生育的事实，就应当享受国家法定的98天产假和相应的生育津贴。女职工未婚流产也能享 受15天至42天的流产假并且申领产假工资。 灵活就业人员也能参加生育保险吗？ 以前的生育保险仅覆盖企业职工，现在扩大了，灵活就业人员、农民工、新就业形态人员等也纳入保障范围。比如上海市规 定，灵活就业人员按照现行费率缴纳职工基本医疗保险费，其中1%视为生 ...
