The State Employment Service of Ukraine is actively involved in supporting young people in matters of employment and adaptation to the modern labor market. One of the effective ways of such support is to compensate employers for the costs of hiring young specialists. These initiatives are aimed at reducing business costs and at the same time creating opportunities for young people to gain their first professional experience.
Conditions for receiving compensation
Compensation is provided to employers for employing young people under the age of 25 with up to 1 year of insurance experience.
Compensation is provided to employers for employing young people under the age of 35 for their first job.
Employment must be provided by a referral from an employment center, which confirms the young person's registration as unemployed.
Duration of employment is 1 year.
Compensation for expenses occurs every odd month of employment (i.e., in the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth, eleventh months). The maximum duration of compensation payment to the employer is six months.
The employer receives compensation in the amount of 50% of the minimum wage, which significantly reduces labor costs in the initial stages of the employment relationship.

Compensation of part of the salary of young workers is an effective tool that helps reduce the financial burden on the employer at the initial stage of cooperation. For small and medium-sized businesses, this can be an additional incentive to expand the team and create new jobs, which, in turn, contributes to economic growth. For young people, such support is a motivation to get officially employed, which opens the way to stable work and gaining their first professional experience.
