We are talking about more than 8,000 entrepreneurs who hired 14,400 internally displaced people. This is reported by the Government portal.
In order to receive funds, the employer must enter into an employment contract (especially part-time), a gig contract with an internally displaced person. After that, you should submit an application for compensation through the Diya portal or in paper form at the employment center together with a package of necessary documents.
In April 2022, the Government introduced a program to encourage entrepreneurs to hire IDPs. Its goal is to speed up the adaptation of people who were forced to move to safer regions and to increase the level of employment among the population.
It should be noted that from January 1, 2024, the amount of compensation has been increased to 7,100 hryvnias per month. And from April, it will be 8,000 hryvnias.
Also, by the decision of the Government, the duration of the payment of compensation was extended from 2 to 3 months. And for the employment of IDPs from among persons with disabilities, the employer will be able to receive such compensation within 6 months.
