Practical aspects of reserving, - discussion from Association

As a result of discussions on the provisions of the IT Reservation Procedure, the following issues remain debatable for the IT industry:

• the criteria by which the Ministry of Statistics will recognize the company as the one having crucial importance for the sector of the national economy;
• the criteria by which the Ministry of Digital Transformation will recognize its jurisdiction over a company that submits a list of employees for reserving to the Ministry;
• the possibility of booking IT professionals who provide the company with services as solo traders;
• possibilities of reserving gig specialists;
• prevention of possible mobilization of conscripts during the reserving procedure;

IT professionals are the driver of the country’s economy, they have a powerful intellectual potential in the restoration of the country. It is important for us to adapt the reserving procedure and make it practical, maintaining a balance between the economic and military needs of Ukraine,

Kateryna Oliynyk, Vice President of the IT Ukraine Association for financial and legal issues, said.
