Brussels, 5 March 2024 (TDI): The MoveS network, supported by the European Commission, has recently unveiled a new brochure titled “The Labour Mobility Rights of Displaced Persons from Ukraine.”
This brochure dives into the rights of displaced individuals from Ukraine within the European Union (EU) regarding employment and social security.
The cover of the brochure shows people gathered in the shape of Ukraine and symbolizing unity and support for those displaced. It’s a comprehensive guide meant to help these individuals understand their options as they navigate through their new circumstances.
