Ministry Proposes Experiment to Import Skilled Workers
The Ministry of Economy proposes an experimental mechanism to import skilled workers and laborers in Ukraine. A list of deficit professions will be formed, and the qualifications of candidates will be verified by the State Employment Center with participation of the Ministry of Education and Science, Ministry of Finance, and Security Service of Ukraine. The proposal aims to digitalize the submission of applications and information exchange between state bodies. The list of professions and requirements for qualifications will be formed by the end of October. The State Employment Center will gather information from employers, labor organizations, central government bodies, and regional employment centers. Employers and their associations will be able to notify about the need for workers in certain specialties by the end of October. The State Employment Center will determine the professions and requirements based on the gathered information. The list and requirements will be published on the official website. Only candidates whose profession is included in the list and meets the requirements will be eligible to apply. Candidates must provide documents confirming their work experience, a labor contract, or other evidence of employment in Ukraine to verify their qualifications. Applications and documents can be submitted personally, by email, electronically, or through the system 'Obryy' via the 'Diy' portal or mobile app.
