Medical workers on the frontlines received a sixfold salary increase: details of the government's decision

The government of Ukraine has decided to raise allowances for medical workers who respond to calls in the ATO zone. Now they will receive a reward that is six times higher than the basic rate.

The Minister of Health Viktor Lyashko stated: 'We are moving towards increasing salaries for medical workers who are operating in areas of active combat. The new coefficients will allow medical teams to receive six times more funds for responding in dangerous areas.'

Lyashko explained that this decision will lead to a significant increase in funding for medical services; for example, the Chernihiv emergency service will receive an additional 9 million hryvnias per month.

Thus, medical workers who risk their lives in the conflict zone will receive the deserved reward that should stimulate their work in conditions of increased danger and ensure proper medical assistance at the front.

The announcement that the government has increased allowances for medical workers responding to calls in the ATO zone is a step forward in supporting healthcare workers operating in dangerous conditions. This decision aims to incentivize medical professionals to work in high-risk environments and ensure quality medical care at the front.
