Reservation Quota After the Changes of 03.07.2026: Who to Count and Who Not
As of July 3, 2026, the procedure for determining the total number of military-liable employees, on the basis of which the reservation limit is calculated, has changed.
Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine No. 862 of 01.07.2026 clarified paragraph 12 of Procedure No. 76: employees with a deferment on other grounds under Article 23 of the Law of Ukraine “On Mobilization Preparation and Mobilization,” as well as part-timers who work at another critically important enterprise or in a critically important institution, are counted at only one place of work — the one where the term of the employment relationship is the longest.
✅ Who to include in the reservation quota calculation
The base for determining the quota includes military-liable employees who are in an employment relationship with the enterprise and do not fall under the established exceptions.
- Having a personal deferment — due to disability, studies, family circumstances, or another ground provided for by Article 23 of the Law — does not in itself exclude an employee from the quota. Such an employee is counted, but only at one employer.
- The total number also continues to include employees called up for military service during mobilization after May 18, 2024.
🚫 Who not to count
The following are not included in the quota:
- military-liable women;
- persons who are on military registration with the SBU or intelligence agencies;
- those removed from military registration (mobilized before 18.05.2024, removed by age or state of health);
- those on military registration as conscripts (not military-liable);
- employees reserved by another enterprise.
- an employee with a deferment, if the longer term of their employment relationship is at another critically important enterprise or in a critically important institution.
The formal status of the main place of work is not decisive: what matters is precisely the duration of the employment relationship.
Separately check part-timers mobilized after May 18, 2024. Such mobilized persons are generally included in the calculation; however, a part-timer cannot form the quota for several employers at the same time. Therefore, they should not be counted toward your enterprise’s quota if they have a longer term of employment relationship at another place of work.
📱 What to do with the figure in “Diia”
As of the date this material was prepared, “Diia” has not yet implemented the correct display of part-timers who have a deferment on other grounds. Because of this, the portal may continue to count such employees in the total headcount and show an overstated available limit.
You may not reserve additional employees merely because “Diia” technically allows it. The ability to generate an application does not mean that the reservation complies with Procedure No. 76.
Using an overstated system quota may lead to exceeding the lawful limit, the need to cancel excess reservations, and the risk of losing critically important enterprise status. If the enterprise has employees with other deferments who work at another critically important enterprise or in a critically important institution longer than at your enterprise, they must be subtracted from the quota shown in “Diia” manually.
The same check should be applied to part-timers mobilized after May 18, 2024.
Thus, “Diia” remains a technical tool, but responsibility for the correct calculation of the quota lies with the employer.
