How Remote is supporting displaced Ukrainian citizens

The European Union has invoked the Temporary Protection Directive to provide protection to Ukrainians. Twenty-seven EU member states have agreed to issue Ukrainian citizens residence permits for one year, with an automatic extension for an additional year. This directive lets Ukrainians decide where they wish to live, work, and belong.

The Remote for Refugees programme is available to support Ukrainians and others displaced by the conflict. If you want to hire Ukrainian refugees remotely, Remote can deliver Employer of Record services to help you recruit and onboard refugee talent at specially reduced rates.

Frequently asked questions

We have partnered with governments and organisations that support refugees to develop solutions that directly assist displaced people to rebuild their lives. This work is urgent given the millions displaced from Afghanistan, Syria, and other conflict-affected countries. As a company that enables global employment, we consider it our moral duty to support refugees through dignified work.

We support employers who hire refugee talent and have simplified access by applying a meaningful discount to Employer of Record (EOR) services. This allows any refugee who is lawfully eligible to work in a country where we maintain an entity to be onboarded via our platform at a reduced cost. Alongside facilitating refugee employment, we also highlight organisations that can help employers find refugee candidates.
