The initiative consists of providing tax incentives to those enterprises where the share of veterans exceeds 30% of the total number of employees.
The Christian Corps, an association of commanders of the defense forces of Ukraine, handed to members of the Verkhovna Rada proposals and developments regarding the veteran employment bill. This is reported on the organization’s official website.
“Commanders of combat units of the defense forces of Ukraine who united in the Christian Corps sent concrete proposals to the head of the Verkhovna Rada, Ruslan Stefanchuk, and to the leaders of all parliamentary factions,” the statement reads.
The initiative consists of providing tax incentives to those enterprises where the share of veterans exceeds 30% of the total number of employees.
“The main civil task of the Christian Corps is to show that adherence to moral precepts and Christian values can solve the greatest rear-area problems—bureaucracy, injustice, and social vulnerability. That is why one of the Corps’ priorities is the legislative initiative that will promote the integration of war veterans into peaceful life. We have prepared a concrete document and today we are handing it to those who have the authority to make laws,” said Battalion Commander Brotherhood Oleksii Seredjuk.
In turn, the project was commented on by the commander of the special unit Stugna, Dmytro Linko.
“We already say many beautiful words about respecting veterans. But appeals don’t create jobs, don’t fund retraining, and don’t reimburse any costs to employers. When a entrepreneur decides whom to hire, they count money—and that’s normal, it’s their business and their risk. Therefore, the instrument that can truly change something must also be financial. Our proposal is exactly that: enterprises where war veterans comprise at least 30% of employees receive tax incentives. The state gives nothing away—it simply makes the most difficult first step of employment cheaper, which benefits all parties,” he stressed.
It is reported that the initiative was first presented at the Christian Corps’ presentation at Kyiv Pechersk Lavra. There it received support from military personnel, chaplains, and representatives of public organizations. After that, the Corps opened the project for public discussion, inviting all who wish to participate in the discussion. Now the letter with working documents has been sent to the leadership and deputies of the Verkhovna Rada.
