The Federation of Employers of Ukraine (FEU), the largest and most representative employer organization in the country, conducted a survey between 10 and 27 April, 2020 to scan the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic among its member enterprises. 121 enterprises responded to the survey which is based on the ILO “Enterprise survey tool: Assessing the needs of enterprises resulting from COVID-19”.

On February the 26th, the Federation of Employers of Ukraine together with colleagues from other business associations signed a Memorandum of cooperation in the sphere of foreign economic activity with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine.

The Board of Directors of WorldSkills International has approved FEU as the organization that will represent Ukraine in this international organization.

Its key objective is to strengthen the role of the private sector in creating favorable conditions for doing business and representing the interests of employers at all levels.

On the employers' side, the document was signed by Mr. Dmytro Oliynyk, Chairman of the Federation of Employers of Ukraine.

Dmitry Oliynyk noted that the event is of key importance to the process of social dialogue. The experience of European states proves that special success has been achieved by those of them where social dialogue is constantly going on and the development of real socio-economic policy is agreed with employers and trade unions.
