Financial assistance to workable migrants from Donbas will be appointed only after they are registered at the State Employment Center.
Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk announced at a Cabinet meeting Wednesday, a Ukrinform correspondent reports.
“We resolve to provide state aid for the six-month period to these persons (temporarily displaced persons from Donbas – Ed.). Per each person, who is not able to earn, a monthly aid is UAH 884. For every working person – it is 50% of this amount. And note – in case if a person wants to receive the government assistance – he/she should come to the Employment Center and register in order to get a job. If one wants that the state helped him/her, they should look for a job and get it,” Yatseniuk said.
Total payments for a family, according to Yatseniuk, should not exceed UAH 2,400.
“I emphasize again – it is just in case, if a person is looking for a job and is willing to provide for one’s family through going to work and earning. The state cannot help a person, who is not looking for a job, because this person does not want to help himself/herself,” the Prime Minister stressed.
