What are the current conditions for suspending an employment contract?

In order to suspend the employment contract, two conditions must be met:

• the employer cannot provide the employee with a job;

• the employee cannot perform the work.

The impossibility of providing work by the employer and performing work by the employee in the context of the suspension of the employment contract should be understood as cases of impossibility to provide the employee with working conditions due to the fact that the production, organizational, technical capabilities, means of production or the employer's property necessary for the performance of the work by the specified employee were destroyed as a result of hostilities or their functioning is impossible for objective and independent reasons from the employer, and transferring the employee to another job or engaging him to work using a remote form of work organization is impossible due to the lack of opportunities to apply such a form of work organization or the lack of his consent to this , in particular, due to the reasons for his transfer from the territory where active hostilities are taking place.

Suspension of the employment contract may be carried out at the initiative of one of the parties for a period no longer than the period of martial law.
