According to the information of the Pension Fund of Ukraine, the company where the applicant worked, according to the submitted report from the State Security Service, had no data on labor or civil legal relations with him.

According to the Unified State Register of Legal Entities, Individual Entrepreneurs and Public Organizations, the main type of economic activity of the enterprise is the activity of private security services.
In accordance with the Law of Ukraine of March 2, 2015 No. 222-VIII "On Licensing of Types of Economic Activities" (hereinafter - Law No. 222), Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 960 of November 18, 2015, the Licensing conditions for conducting security activities (hereinafter - Licensing conditions).They provide that security guards must be part of the staff of the subject of security activity and, depending on the object being protected, meet the qualification requirements specified by the order of the Ministry of Labor of December 29, 2004 No. 336 "On approval of Issue 1 "Professions of employees who are common to all types of economic activity" of the Handbook of qualification characteristics of workers' professions". The level of compliance with qualification requirements is documented in accordance with legislation.
Clause 17 of the License Terms stipulates that able-bodied citizens of Ukraine who have reached the age of 18, have completed appropriate education or professional training, have entered into an employment contract with a subject of security activities (are part of the staff of a subject of security activities) can be security personnel.
