Booking in 2025: who will receive a deferment through 'Diia' and critical enterprises

New booking conditions for conscripted workers

According to ХВИЛЯ: In 2025, new booking conditions were introduced in Ukraine for conscripted workers of critical enterprises through the 'Diia' portal. This decision concerns employees working in strategic sectors such as energy, healthcare, and housing and communal services. Booking allows for a temporary deferment of mobilization, which is an important step to support stability in these areas.

According to the new regulations, in 2025 the state provides for deferments from mobilization for conscripted workers of critical enterprises. Booking may be granted for up to 100% of personnel in certain areas, which helps maintain the functioning of strategic sectors amid mobilization challenges. Additionally, men who have issues with military registration may receive a temporary deferment for 45 days, allowing them to resolve administrative issues related to military accounting.

Relevance of updates

An important aspect is that deferments issued before December 1, 2024, are subject to mandatory updates by the end of February 2025. This ensures the relevance of data and control over the fulfillment of booking conditions. Law No. 4630-IX, which regulates these matters, came into force on December 4, 2025, highlighting the urgency and importance of innovations in the field of booking.

Booking and individuals with military registration violations are topics that require special attention. The process of booking in 2025 will become an important element for enterprises operating in critical sectors. Key innovations of 2025 will provide opportunities for adapting new hiring rules, as well as include practical recommendations for businesses that will help retain staff in important sectors of the economy.

Overall, the new booking rules in 2025 create conditions to support critical enterprises that ensure the country's livelihood in challenging conditions. These changes, implemented through the 'Diia' portal, aim to protect key sectors and ensure their stability amid mobilization.

Changes in booking rules reflect the efforts of the Ukrainian state to support economic stability amid military challenges. Providing deferments for employees in strategic sectors will allow preserving jobs and the functioning of critical sectors, which is vital for national security. These innovations also demonstrate the government's intention to adapt to new realities and provide proper support for businesses in challenging situations.
