The Verkhovna Rada raised the age limit for civil servants and employees of local self-government bodies to 70 for the period of martial law and for two years after its end. Previously, the maximum age for civil service was 65 years.

The corresponding norm was supported during the consideration of the draft law No. 13574 – 243 people’s deputies voted “for”.

Why did the Rada increase the maximum age of civil servants?

As Fedir Venislavskyi, a member of the parliamentary committee on national security, defense and intelligence, explained, in wartime, some of the junior civil servants serve in the Armed Forces, so the state needs experienced personnel. According to him, there are specialists who, even after 70 years, are able to perform their duties efficiently.

Currently, the law “On Civil Service” allows a civil servant to remain in his post after 65 years by the decision of the subject of appointment and with the consent of the employee himself. Such an extension is drawn up every year, but no later than reaching the age of 70.

The Verkhovna Rada announced a break until the end of February: the deputies ignored the meeting.

The Council could not hold a meeting due to a lack of votes for the IMF’s demands.
