Derzhpratsi noted that an employer can send an employee with a disability on a business trip, but taking into account the recommendations of the medical and social expert commission (MSEC) regarding working conditions.

“The employer is obliged to take into account the conclusions of the MSEC specified in the certificate, which determine the ability of the employee to perform professional duties in specific conditions,” the message says..

Experts added that the employee is obliged to comply with the manager’s order on a business trip if this is provided for in the employment contract.

Refusal from a business trip without good reason is a violation of labor discipline.

“Labor legislation does not contain direct prohibitions or restrictions on sending an employee with a disability on a business trip, and also does not require obtaining the separate consent of an employee with a disability to be sent on a business trip,” Derzhpratsi summarized..
