A new employment strategy is being created in Ukraine
The process of creating a new employment strategy is taking place in Ukraine.
According to the Ministry of Economy, its main goal is to give the chance to work to citizens who are struggling to find employment, particularly veterans, individuals with disabilities, women, older adults, internally displaced persons (IDPs), and Ukrainians living abroad. Around 4.65 million IDPs are registered in Ukraine currently, and nearly two million of them are of working age. Moreover, over 6.9 million citizens live abroad. As the Ministry of Economy says, the aim of this new strategy is making inclusion essential for sustainable economic growth, not optional.
They are proposing various solutions: enhancing career counseling, adopting internship programs, promoting professional retraining, implementing retraining initiatives for veterans, and endorsing integration programs, among others. As a result, as the State Employment Service has reported, there was an increase in job vacancies that offer housing benefits in response to the personnel shortage in Ukraine.
The Unified Vacancy Portal currently shows over 230,000 job postings available daily, including more than 2,000 job openings with housing provision listed since the start of the year. The increase compared to the same period last year attains 30%. Employees found 3,500 vacancies including those offering housing benefits over the past year, especially in Kyiv and the surrounding areas.
