Dosmatov explained that recalling an employee from vacation is only possible with the employee's consent; forced recall is not permitted.
Kultaev also clarified: "If an employee has not used their vacation this year, will they be able to use it next year? Are there any limitations?"
The Deputy Minister replied that he could not provide precise information about possible limitations; however, according to the Labor Code, unused vacation can be carried over to the next year.
