For a class of multiplicative integer-valued functions $f$ the distribution of the sequence $f(n)$ in restricted residue classes modulo $N$ is studied. We consider a property weaker than weak uniform distribution and study it for polynomial-like multiplicative functions, in particular for $\varphi (n)$ and $\sigma (n)$.
