Employment for Ukrainians abroad is becoming an important part of adaptation in the new environment. In most EU countries, 40% to 60% of refugees who have been granted temporary protection are officially employed. At the same time, not all citizens are satisfied with the working conditions and benefits offered by employers.


We will tell you which countries and cities in the European Union have the best employment conditions for refugees from Ukraine.

Which EU countries have simplified conditions for employment of Ukrainians?


According to the EnableMe Ukraine platform, there are several countries in Europe that have significantly simplified employment conditions for refugees. Among them:


1. Germany: you can get a job here after 6 months of staying in the country. Most of the vacancies without language skills are offered in warehouses and production facilities. In addition, they are looking for drivers, builders, cleaners, and caregivers for the elderly.

2. The Netherlands: without knowledge of the language, it is easy to get a job in production, and Ukrainians are offered to harvest crops and work in greenhouses.

3. Norway: in addition to simplified employment conditions, it offers higher wages. Thus, welders, builders, production workers, and drivers receive an average of 2500 to 4000 euros per month.

4. Poland: there are currently many vacancies in the country in the hotel and restaurant business and in construction. In addition, the country lacks highly qualified teachers and doctors. Read here how the attitude towards Ukrainian workers in Poland has changed.

5. France: most vacancies are in agriculture, as well as in some other areas where you need to work with machinery. However, it is important to keep in mind that you need to know French to get a job.


We remind you! Migration trends among Ukrainians, in particular with the aim of changing the country of temporary protection, are increasing, as the conditions of stay and financial assistance are changing.
