Continued Mobilization Exemptions: Latest Updates

The government is not planning any significant changes to the mobilization exemption criteria in the near future.

This was announced by Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal during the "hour of questions to the government" in the Verkhovna Rada, as reported by "Interfax-Ukraine".

"Regarding exemptions. We do not foresee substantial changes to the criteria and approaches in the near future. They are clearly defined, digitized, and extremely transparent," - he said.

The Prime Minister also mentioned that the government is closely monitoring the exemption process in cooperation with the military: who is being exempted and in which sectors.

"These criteria meet the needs of both the military and the economy. We do not plan any major revisions in the near future," - emphasized Shmyhal.

Reminder:

Starting April 1 only companies that have updated their critical status according to new requirements will be able to continue exempting their specialists. Exemptions granted under old rules will become void.

The Cabinet of Ministers has approved changes to the procedure for exempting mobilized workers in mobile operators and internet providers.

Additionally, according to the government's decision, the exemption quota for companies providing water supply, wastewater management, waste management, and servicing critical infrastructure has been increased from 50% to 75%.
