Social and hygienic factors influencing the recruitment of female military personnel into the Armed Forces

The implementation of the legally enshrined right of women to professional guidance as a military personnel is a complex issue due to such an unconditional circumstance as the need to participate in combat operations (elimination of emergency situations) to protect the country. There is every reason to position female military personnel as a de facto personnel resource for the Armed Forces, which will have to find the most rational application. To do this, it is necessary, on the one hand, to remove all restrictions on the military-professional orientation of females, on the other hand, the number of female military personnel in the total number of the army and navy should be limited, in particular, by introducing initially higher requirements for their physical fitness. It is advisable to determine the replacement of military positions by women depending on the conditions of military service at specific workplaces, as well as on the effectiveness of the implementation of additional preventive measures developed to minimize the effect of harmful and (or) dangerous factors of military service on women’s health (social guarantees).
