Ukrainian Resources

Just over a year ago, we were writing about a vibrant staffing market in the Ukraine with 1,225 agencies employing 143,185 citizens and many online portals. Yet with the Russian invasion of that country, ten million people have now fled their homes in Ukraine, according to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHRC). As well as the 4.3 million-plus who have left for neighbouring countries (table 1), the vast majority going to Poland and an increasing number to Romania. An estimated 7.1 million people are thought to be displaced inside the war-torn country itself. The UNHCR is offering help to those who have had to flee and is also fundraising.

We are covering the conflict in our daily news and for those who are interested the position of the WEC, their members, international and European stakeholders there is an excellent page here. Several of these members are also working with the Tent Partnership for refugees and the ICRC (the International Committee of the Red Cross / Red Crescent).

The following list is for companies keen to identify initiatives that help in this situation by matching refugees with jobs.
