Over 220,000 Ukrainian women find jobs in Poland

More than 220,000 Ukrainian women have found employment in Poland since Russia's war on Ukraine started, the Polish family and social policy minister has said. "This is good news for our labour market, as all the meetings with employers clearly show that we need more hands on deck," Marlena Malag told public radio on Friday. She said that the labour market in Poland was "very absorptive." Under a special law, Ukrainian citizens who arrived in Poland after February 24, when Russia invaded Ukraine, can take up employment without the need to apply for a work permit.
