20 thousand UAH and three meals a day. A soldier explained what benefits TCC employees have.
Public opinions about the living conditions in Temporary Control Points (TCC) vary. There is often a belief that employees of these points receive high salaries in foreign currency, but this is not the case. A salary of 20 thousand hryvnias and three meals a day are similar conditions to any other place. This is explained by Sergeant Oleksandr Porozhniuk, who works at the TCC. According to him, the salary depends on the position and rank. The salary of a soldier is about 20.3 thousand hryvnias, while that of a junior sergeant is 22.8 thousand hryvnias.
Oleksandr also adds that the TCC provides three meals a day. The state supplies the products, and the cooks prepare the food. They also feed those who arrive at the TCC. All military personnel have free transportation. Benefits are provided only to combat participants, including discounts on utilities, hospitals, and sanatoriums. This applies to anyone who holds a combat participant certificate.
Oleksandr explains that in other regions, phones are not confiscated. A phone is considered private property and therefore cannot be taken from a person. He also claims that it is possible to send packages to conscripts - food, clothing, and necessary items. Additionally, statistics are provided about the composition of TCC personnel, where half of the staff consists of military personnel who have sustained injuries or concussions.
It is worth noting that 'Glavkom' had a conversation with Oleksandr Porozhniuk, who discussed the living conditions in the TCC.
