National deputies propose to establish the possibility of protection from mobilization for a military fee of 20,000 hryvnias. This was reported by the press service of the Verkhovna Rada.
The Committee on Economic Development of the Verkhovna Rada has developed an initiative on economic protection from mobilization, said the head of the committee, Dmytro Natalukha.
«These proposals allow the employer to independently determine the employees who are strategically important for supporting the business and pay a military fee of 20,000 hryvnias for each of them monthly,» he emphasized.
Natalukha stressed that Ukrainian businesses need protection as they must continue to operate. «If there is no business with its taxes, we will have no source to support our defenders. This may be an unpleasant but obvious truth. However, I emphasize once again — let the business determine for itself who is strategic for it,» he added.
The committee chairman also noted that it is important for specific employees to be considered strategic, not only the sectors determined by officials.
