Hladush started out in 1951 as an inspector at the State Auto Inspection (GAI). In 1957 Hladush graduated the All-Union Extramural Engineering Institute in Moscow. In 1963 he was in charge of GAI at the Directorate of General Order Security in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. In 1968-1974 Hladush headed the Directorate of General Order Security in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. During that period he graduated the Kyiv College of Ministry of Interior Affairs of USSR (today National Academy of Interior Affairs of Ukraine) in 1970 and in 1973 he received a rank of major general of Militsiya.

In 1974-1977 Hladush was a chief of Directorate of Interior Affairs in Donetsk Oblast. In 1982-1990 he was a minister of Internal Affairs of UkrSSR.

In April 1988 Ivan Hladush as a minister of Interior headed a government commission in regards to recent findings in woodlands around Darnytsia.[3] The commission came up with its report announcing that in Bykivnia were killed Soviet people by Nazi-Fascist invaders.[3] It was partially true as there was Darnytsia concentration camp in close vicinity.[3] Later another commission confirmed that Bykivnia was hiding much more.[3]
