State Border Service gives pay raise for its servicemen in ATO zone

The State Border Patrol Service continues to seek opportunities for paying decent salaries for its staff, primarily for military personnel who are serving in the ATO area.

The press service of the State Border Patrol Service reports.

"Primarily this applies to the military personnel serving in the ATO zone. So, in February, according to the decree adopted by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine dated 22 September 2010 №889, all categories of border patrolmen defending the country in the east will receive a pay increase, which will raise the level of their salaries to the level paid in the Armed Forces and the National Guard. As for border patrol servicemen in other areas, the level of their salaries is now equal to that which was paid in the Armed Forces and the National Guard prior to 1 January, 2016," a statement said.
