The heads of IT companies are not subject to a deferral from mobilization. The Ministry of Finance wants to change this

Although, as always, there were some reservations.

So, according to Interfax, the head of the department Maksuta Shadaev answered several questions from industry representatives today.

In particular, to the question of whether the postponement will be given to general directors and their deputies, regardless of the specialty of the diploma of higher education (in the IT field), he replied as follows:

“We are working on the possibility of including managerial specialties in the list of profile for IT.”

Simply put, nothing is clear yet.

In any case, a prerequisite for obtaining a deferral will be the participation of the manager in the development and support of the product.

As for the founders and co-founders of IT companies, they will not receive a reprieve if they are not employees of their companies.
