Since May 18, 2024, the compulsory military service (which has not been conducted since October 29, 2022) has been replaced with the Basic Military Service (BMS).

The Cabinet of Ministers will define the timing and the number of people to be drafted.

In this article, we explore the key features of BMS and analyze what the conscription of employees under BMS could mean for employers.
