Service in the army, of course, tempers men, makes them stronger. But what should those guys who are not allowed by religion to take up arms or the same pacifists to do? Do not despair, there is a way out. You can also serve for the good of your homeland in the civil service, in the ranks of alternative workers. But how do you get to such a service?
Instructions
Step 1
In alternative service, the conscript goes to work instead of the army. He can serve in government institutions, boarding schools, nursing homes, orphanages, hospitals. Also, as an alternative, you may be offered a job at construction sites, in factories. But not everyone can get into this service, but only those whose beliefs and confessions contradict military service, as well as representatives of small ethnic groups engaged in traditional crafts.
Step 2
To get into alternative service, 6 months before conscription, you must submit an application to the military registration and enlistment office at your place of residence about your desire to serve on an alternative basis. Here you can also indicate where and with whom you want to work.
Step 3
When writing your application, be sure to indicate the reasons that prompted you to apply for alternative service, as well as the profession you own. You can also indicate the position you would like to occupy.
In your application, list those who are able to support your argument that your beliefs or religion is indeed in conflict with military service. If possible, attach all relevant documents. The recruiting company will review your application and decide where to refer you.
Step 4
Upon arrival at the place of service, the employer must conclude an employment contract with the conscript. The alternative serviceman will have to serve a little more than a conscript - 21 months. Also, according to the law, the conscript is given a standardized working day, days off. In addition, the soldier can take advantage of the vacation. Another plus of civilian service is the ability to study in a university in absentia or in the evening department. The salary of a soldier of alternative service, according to the law, must correspond to the regional minimum subsistence level. For avoiding alternative service, as well as from urgent, liability is provided.
