Employers are not always aware of the protection of WOT staff

The employment relation with a individual appointed to execute territorial military service may only be terminated with his or her consent, unless the contract has been concluded for a trial period or a limited period of up to 12 months. The reason for the solution is besides the worker's fault, as well as the bankruptcy or liquidation of the company. During the exercise, the employer is obliged to give the WOT soldier free leave; compensation for lost earnings is then paid to the military employee.
