Why work with WFP Ukraine?

The war in Ukraine has had drastic consequences, both for people inside the country and for those around the world who depend on its food supplies. The war has caused immense suffering for civilians, displaced families, and disrupted supply chains and food production. It has caused one of the fastest forced population movements since the Second World War. Close to 6 million Ukrainians are still living as refugees across Europe, and almost 3.3 million are internally displaced. Many have lost their homes and livelihoods. As food production and supply lines are disrupted by fighting, many families in the east and south of Ukraine do not have reliable access to nutritious food.

WFP uses a combination of food and cash assistance to support communities affected by the war. This includes working with local partners to distribute food boxes in areas near the frontline and providing cash transfers in locations where people have access to banks and markets to buy food. Since March 2022, WFP has distributed food and cash assistance equivalent to 3.01 billion meals to people displaced and affected by the war.

At WFP Ukraine, we offer a wide range of benefits and entitlements and favorable working conditions for Service Contract holders. Some of them are:

✅ Competitive salaries per job level

✅ Pension contribution added to net salary

✅ Medical insurance with the possibility to enroll eligible dependents

✅ Applicable danger pay (revised on quarterly basis)

✅ Annual leave - 30 days per year

✅ 18 weeks of parental leave for birth mothers and 4 weeks of parental leave for non-birth parent
