The Ukrainian Armed Forces' General Staff reported this on Facebook. 

Thus, in the city of Energodar, the Russian forces rotated personnel at the nuclear power plant.

“Furthermore, the facts of physical and moral pressure on employees of the Zaporizhzhia NPP with the aim of forcing them to sign contracts with the Rosatom corporation are recorded,” the report says.

In addition, invading Russian forces forbade the employees of the power plant to leave the territory controlled by the Ukrainian authorities.

• Earlier, Energoatom stated that the Russian forces are forming lists of workers at the Zaporizhzhia NPP who have signed contracts with Rosatom in order to mobilize some of them to serve in the Russian army or the Territorial Defense.
