To ensure that Ukrainians have access to communication and the internet, companies need employees, which necessitates reserving staff. The Ministry of Digital Transformation has proposed improvements to the conditions for reserving employees in the electronic communications sector by amending Resolution No. 76, which has been adopted by the government.
Due to the changes in the resolution, mobile operators and large internet providers that meet the requirements of the National Center for Operational and Technical Management of Electronic Communications Networks of Ukraine (NTSU) for ensuring internet access during power outages will be able to reserve 100% of their employees.
To qualify, mobile operators must have a revenue exceeding 200 million UAH, and internet providers must have a revenue exceeding 20 million UAH. Companies need to obtain critical status according to these criteria. Additionally, employees listed for reservation must be full-time staff who have been employed by the company for at least 3 months.
Internet provider companies with critical status but with monthly revenues less than 20 million UAH will be able to reserve more than 50% of their technical staff. This is possible if the provider has formed emergency response teams to maintain networks and serve subscribers, possesses technological transport, equipment, and materials necessary for maintaining network operations during power outages, restoring networks during disruptions, and providing services in the territories of Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kyiv, Luhansk, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Poltava, Sumy, Kharkiv, Kherson, Chernihiv regions, and Kyiv.
We have also reported that the collection of projects for the energy sector has started in Ukraine.
