Economic and Security Program

Veterans Workplace Empowerment

This program is designed to ensure that Ukraine’s military technology and human capital—especially veterans with valuable skills—are used for peaceful and productive purposes. Ukraine faces significant risks that its advanced military technologies and skilled human capital developed during the war could be sold or captured by malign actors. While the number of companies hiring veterans has grown significantly in recent years, many still lack clear plans, policies, and the necessary knowledge for effective veteran reintegration. Only a small percentage of businesses offer dedicated support programs, and around half of companies in Ukraine neither have specific programs for veterans nor provide targeted training. Further action is needed to build the knowledge base and ensure comprehensive professional adaptation and successful integration of veterans into civilian life. Large national and international companies, through their corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives, can strengthen Ukraine’s workforce resilience and contribute to a stable economy. Supporting veteran reintegration not only helps secure Ukraine’s human capital but also promotes broader economic development, stability, and security.
