The Government of Ukraine is changing reservation rules for employees of critical enterprises
Published
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine plans to revise the rules for the reservation of conscripted employees. Previously, as of May 30, 2025, the government allowed enterprises that are critically important to the economy and defense to reserve 100% of their personnel. Now, these conditions will be changed to optimize the mobilization process.
According to the new plans, full reservation for the defense-industrial complex and energy sectors will be canceled. This means that enterprises will no longer be able to automatically keep all employees without exception in their workplaces, even if they work in strategically important industries.
The government is developing new mechanisms that will allow companies to reserve specialists based on updated criteria. The purpose of these changes is to strike a balance between the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to replenish personnel and the need to maintain the stable operation of the country's critical infrastructure.
In the near future, the official publication of the new rules is expected, which will explain in detail how exactly enterprises will be able to submit documents for reservation. Employers are advised to monitor updates on official government resources in order to adapt to the new legislative requirements in a timely manner.
