Abstract
Protection of human rights to a decent standard of living is one of the primary duties of a modern state. According to the Constitution adopted by it, the Russian Federation, a social state, proclaims the creation of a decent standard and quality of life for Russians as its most important task as a state. In the world, public support for certain strata of society has been carried out in various forms since ancient times. However, only from the end of the 19th century, social security for employees began to be carried out at the state level. The use of social consumption funds was one of the important features of the socialist state. Public consumption funds aimed to satisfy a wide range of material and spiritual needs of members of Soviet society. This process is evidenced by the various laws and regulations adopted by him in this direction. With the collapse of the Soviet Union and the beginning of market reforms, the Russian state faces an acute problem of forming a new social security system and protecting the population, considering the changed circumstances. The first step in this direction is creating the Russian Pension Fund as an independent off-budget credit and financial system. During the Soviet period, child benefits were provided from the budget only to single mothers and mothers with many children. Now, a lump sum for the birth of a child was paid to each family.
