| dc.description.abstract | This policy paper examines the labour market integration of Ukrainian women displaced by the 2022 Russian invasion in Poland, Italy, and Germany, comparing national approaches, outcomes, and challenges. Poland and Italy prioritise rapid integration, while Germany focuses on long-term strategies, including comprehensive language and integration programs. Despite these differing approaches, common challenges include the uncertainty of temporary protection, childcare responsibilities, and economic insecurity. In Poland, linguistic similarities facilitate faster entry into the labour market, while Germany’s high standards for qualification recognition create significant barriers to accessing the labour market. Italy’s informal labour market increases risks of exploitation, particularly in the care and agricultural sectors. Key recommendations include accelerating the recognition of qualifications, providing gender-sensitive support such as childcare, and establishing pathways to permanent residence. The paper advocates for sustainable EU-wide policies to enable displaced women to achieve stable employment or return to Ukraine if they choose. | en |
