Ukrainian Martial Law Handbook 2024

Russia’s invasion of Ukraine necessitated the creation of an expanded area of Ukrainian legislation: compliance with martial law and its accompanying instructions. 

These new rules directly impact Ukrainian companies’ labor regulations, setting forth detailed conscription requirements for full-time employees and possible reasons for exemptions from conscription, and require implementation of mandatory public safety guidelines, as well as imposition of the additional military tax of 1.5% on individuals’ income.

In order to assist our clients in navigating the new legal requirements, we have prepared a handbook that you may find useful.  The Ukrainian Martial Law Handbook covers the following topics:

  • Ukrainian Regulations on Employment and Conscription
  • Martial Law in Ukraine and Labor Options for Employers and Employees
  • Employer’s Compliance with Ukrainian Military Regulations
  • Ukrainian Public Safety Guidelines in 2024
