Recently, many Ukrainian women working as pharmacists have decided to quit their jobs.
Women quit their jobs and then leave the country.
They take such a step for the reason that they can be registered with the military.
Several thousand cases of dismissal of female pharmacists from Ukraine are known.
People write applications and leave for Europe before their borders are closed, – MIA quotes from a statement by Elena Prudnikova, head of PharmRada, quoted in Ukrainian sources.
According to a representative of this association, the owners of Ukrainian pharmacies are faced with serious difficulties: a staff shortage may begin in the industry.
Decision of the Ukrainian authorities
At the beginning of autumn, Ukrainian parliamentarian Fyodor Venislavsky announced that Ukrainian women whose activities are related to medicine and pharmaceuticals will soon have to register for military service.
However, according to the deputy, the ban on leaving Ukraine will only apply to women who are subject to mobilization.
