Research of the Problems of Ukrainian Forcibly Displaced Persons / Refugees and the Labor Market during Russia’s Full-Scale Military Aggression using Resources of a Scientific Library

Abstract: The article examines the experience of researching the problems of Ukrainian refugees and the labor market during Russia’s military aggression using resources of a scientific library. The study covered the period from February 2022 to January 2023. The work examined two interrelated segments of the Ukrainian labor market: in Ukraine and abroad. Special attention is paid to social-psychological and social-communicative aspects of Ukrainian refugees’ activities and the functioning of the labor market. As a result of Russian military aggression, the labor market in Ukraine in the first half of 2022 was very volatile. Consequently, the number of jobs decreased significantly and unemployment increased. In the second half of 2022, the market situation in Ukraine generally stabilized, but high level of unemployment remained. The crisis situation persisted mainly in the war zone. The most empirical information was obtained about the life of Ukrainian refugees in Poland, Germany, the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Italy. Structural and socio-psychological differences between Ukrainian refugees and traditional Ukrainian labor migrants are determined, which affect their motivation and behavior on the labor market in European countries. Women of working age with children and pensioners predominated among Ukrainian refugees in European countries. Initially, the main goal for Ukrainian refugees was managing their life, while finding a job was in second place among their goals in the country of immigration. Most of the Ukrainian refugees are now in Poland, Germany, and the Czech Republic. Although the majority of Ukrainian refugees of working age have higher education and high professional qualifications, in European countries they mostly work in jobs that do not require high qualifications. Most Ukrainian refugees work in Poland. In Germany, the employment of Ukrainian refugees is hindered by the high level of professional regulation of the local labor market and a language barrier.

Keywords: refugees, information, scientific library, labor market, social communications, labor migrants.
