What does “let” mean in this context? Do they get a vote?

In case you want to avoid them.
Better way to peruse their owned brands. It’s a fuckload of stuff https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unilever_brands
They own 7th Generation? Wow, that’s a bait and switch. https://www.unilever.com/brands/home-care/seventh-generation/ Vaseline was a surprise as well.
Avoiding Unilever in NL is unfortunately impossible. They make literally everything
Not Ben & Jerry’s :(
Did they have have the option to not let them be conscripted?
They probably had the option to fire them if they did
Wow, they had a choice and that’s what they’re choosing?
Not on conscription. The only way to avoid it would be to stop operating in Russia entirely (which, being a giant corporation, they won’t).
But you don’t understand! It’s not straightforward!
They totally care about the employees there. It’s definitely not about the profit they made that had them paying 33m in taxes to Russia last year.
I’m sure they offered to relocate the employees and not you know, just leave them working in the country to get conscripted.
With the absolute shitshow that the Ruble is I don’t see how staying in the country and doing business could be profitable.
With Wagner’s exile to Belarus, Unilever could be Putin’s next PMC if their employees do well enough on the battlefield. Maybe that’s where they think the real profit will start coming in /s
Why is unilever still in Russia to begin with?
Money.

As if they have a choice (other than pulling out of Russia completely of course).
The BBC is also letting Unilever’s Russian employees be conscripted.
I am unaware of Russian laws. What if the people doesn’t want to fight for the army? Will they get punished?
Conscription is mandatory and punishment is prison sentence of up to 10 years.
Good lord. It would be fun to live in Russia. /s
Wait, you really have no idea what conscription is?
It was a sarcasm
Damn, Capitalism sure does suck.
