Families of missing persons will receive pensions regardless of length of service
The Ukrainian government plans to launch a unified register of persons missing in special circumstances, allowing their families to receive social guarantees.
This is reported by the Ministry of Reintegration.
Both civilian and military data will be entered into the register. The pension will be awarded to relatives from the moment a missing person is entered into the Unified Register. And it will be paid for all the time for which the legal status of the missing person will be maintained.
The ministry adds that all families who have lost a breadwinner will receive social payments, irrespective of whether or not the missing person had an insurance (pension) record.
