Lawyers of the "Consultant" service are ready to help businesses and individuals deal with all the nuances of booking and ensure the correct implementation of new legal norms.
From now on, booking is possible only for those employees who strictly comply with all military registration requirements. This means that the employee must be on the military register, have the appropriate document, and also be registered on the personal register at the enterprise or institution where he works. The reservation of employees from mobilization ensures that essential workers in critical industries are exempt from being drafted during times of military mobilization.
It is important that employees had to clarify their data by July 16, 2024. In the case of violations, such as not meeting the requirements for military registration or being wanted, the reservation will not be possible. The innovations provide that from October 2, 2024, companies will no longer be able to book such persons.

Booking is possible only if there are documents confirming that the employee is on military registration and his position is critically important for the company. The document confirming the reservation from mobilization is an official document issued by the relevant authorities after processing the reservation request through the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services.
