Types of leave in Ukraine

Employees are entitled to at least 24 calendar days of paid leave, depending on their health and workload.

  • 31 days: employees under the age of 18

  • 26 – 30 days: employees with different types of disability; more severe disability will warrant more days off & vice versa

An employer must accept an employee's request for unpaid leave for a specified duration in certain cases (a honeymoon is one example). Apart from the mandatory provision of unpaid leave, an employer can (but has no obligation to) provide unpaid leave to an employee for family reasons or any based on any other request. Any unpaid leave will not exceed 15 calendar days a year.
