The future of work knows no borders – but what happens when the world is unpredictable, or even dangerous and geopolitical risks come into play? While many companies embrace the idea of “work from anywhere”, the reality in crisis regions is far more complex. In this webinar, we’ll take a deep dive into the challenges and realities of working remotely from high-risk regions, covering legal frameworks, security concerns, and employer responsibilities.

Why Offer Remote Work in Ukraine?

Thousands of Ukrainians now live and work abroad - but many still have strong ties to their homeland. As the war drives displacement, countless employees dream of spending time in Ukraine while keeping their jobs. For companies, offering this flexibility boosts employee retention and well-being – but it’s not without risks.

This Session’s Focus: Ukraine. Ukraine presents various challenges for remote work. What does employment law look like in a conflict zone? What happens when internet access, power supply, or financial systems are disrupted? What legal, and compliance risks should companies and workers be aware of? And what practical steps should companies take to support remote workers in volatile environments?

We’ll cover:

  • Safety & security – Digital and physical security measures for remote workers
  • Legal & tax implications – Which obligations do employers have? What are the compliance risks?
  • Employee Well-being – Mental health, stability, and remote work support in crisis situations
  • Work permits & contracts - Are there any special crisis adjustment requirements?

Save the date! Let’s navigate the challenges of remote work together. Don’t miss this crucial discussion – register now!
