Salaries at Ukraine’s Military Recruitment Centers: What Service Members and Civilian Staff Earn.

Pay Scales at Territorial Recruitment and Social Support Centers in Ukraine

According to Novyny.live: Compensation for personnel at Ukraine’s Territorial Centers for Recruitment and Social Support (TCCs and SPs) varies widely depending on position, employment status, and regional assignment. These centers manage military mobilization and social services, and their staff includes uniformed soldiers, civil servants, and civilian workers, each paid under different frameworks—especially during the ongoing state of martial law.

Pay regulations for TCC and SP employees are governed by two Cabinet of Ministers resolutions: No. 391 (April 25, 2023) and No. 928 (August 25, 2023). Monthly salaries for some positions can exceed 40,000 hryvnias, highlighting considerable disparities in financial compensation across this sector.

Salary Ranges

• Officers at TCCs: from 23,689 to 48,359 hryvnias per month.
• Sergeants: from 20,590 to 30,180 hryvnias.
• Enlisted personnel: from 20,183 to 26,112 hryvnias.
• Senior specialists in rear areas: 22,025–25,358 hryvnias monthly.
• Civil servants in active combat zones: from 42,536 to 47,286 hryvnias.
• Janitors in potential combat zones: from 9,491 to 11,149 hryvnias.

Additionally, workers in certain cross-sector roles receive bonuses equal to 100% of their base salary in active combat zones and 50% in potential combat zones. These supplements play a key role in attracting and retaining skilled personnel under challenging conditions.

Overall, salaries at Ukraine’s TCCs and SPs vary significantly due to differences in job responsibilities and working environments across regions, especially in areas near active hostilities.

This data underscores the need for adequate financial support for staff performing critical duties during wartime.

Such wide pay gaps can affect staff motivation and retention at these centers, which are vital to maintaining the country’s defense capabilities. Amid ongoing threats, ensuring both financial and social support for all categories of workers in this sector remains essential.
