How Remote is supporting displaced Ukrainian citizens

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

The Remote for Refugees program supports Ukrainians and others displaced by this conflict. If you wish to hire Ukrainian refugees remotely, Remote can offer employer of record services to help you hire and onboard refugee talent at specially reduced rates.

The discount applies to any company that hires refugee talent through Remote. Employers must provide documentation confirming each employee’s refugee status and their legal right to work or a valid work permit in the host country, which must be different from their home country or previous country of residence.

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.
