“Our goal is simple: we want to be like Finland or Taiwan – to work safely and create in a free Lithuania for many more years. We want no one to have any doubts about whether it is worth investing, developing business, and creating their future here. Those team members who voluntarily choose service take responsibility for all of us. Taking care of their financial background is not a bonus – it is the only right step.” – says Tesonet co-founder Tomas Okmanas.
The employers’ initiative of the “Universal Defense” association is intended for working people who voluntarily choose mandatory initial military service. Its goal is to help employees maintain income during the service period. Employer support complements the benefits paid by the state.
According to the head of the association, Tomas Godliauskas, employers can choose different ways to encourage employees. The most important thing is that a person who chooses service receives support not only from the state but also from the employer.
