Ukrainian Refugees Find Employment In Ontario, Canada Through Joblio Platform

Joblio Inc has today announced that it has successfully secured jobs for the first group of Ukrainian refugees resettled in Canada. The ethical recruitment platform is regarded as the gold standard in the field of cross-border employment and teamed up with Canadian companies to help the refugees find employment across Canada.

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Joblio has helped Ukrainian refugees fleeing the horrendous conflict to find employment in Canada. Jon Purizhansky, CEO and co-founder of Joblio Inc, has reiterated the company’s commitment to assisting refugees from Ukraine and insists that it will continue to channel its resources to facilitate their rapid introduction into safer countries.

“Our hearts and thoughts are with the people of Ukraine, and we will continue to do all we can to support and help them get through these trying times. We understand the challenges of a sudden move abroad and are working together to be as flexible as possible.”

The company’s proprietary Applicant Concierge Experience (ACE) program is focused on pre-departure and post-arrival community management, helping international job seekers to begin acclimating to their new homes even before they leave their countries of origin.

Differentiated from the non-transparent and inefficient practices of the current global migrant labor market, Joblio’s accessible global platform removes the unethical middlemen from the process, freeing up more economic value for both employers and laborers. Its streamlined and transparent hiring process results in faster applicant processing, higher employee satisfaction, and lower employee attrition.

World Will Have to Find Durable Solutions for the Global Refugee Crises

Joblio.Co is a technology powered social impact enterprise that seeks to bring transparency and order into the industry of global labour migration. Its founder Jon Purizhansky is an ex-refugee who says that according to the UNHCR, at least 89.3 million people around the world have been forced to flee their homes. Among them are nearly 27.1 million refugees, around half of whom are under the age of 18. There are also millions of stateless people, who have been denied a nationality and lack access to basic rights such as education, health care, employment and freedom of movement. Ongoing and newly developed conflicts have driven the displacement across the globe.

For example, the conflict in the Tigray region in Ethiopia led to at least 2.5 million more people being displaced within their country, with some 1.5 million of them returning to their homes during the year.

In Afghanistan, the events leading up to the Taliban’s takeover of Kabul in August 2021 resulted in displacement within the country as well as into neighbouring countries. The number of people displaced internally rose for the 15th straight year, even as more than 790,000 Afghans returned during the year.

The Democratic Republic of the Congo, Nigeria, South Sudan, Sudan, the Syrian Arab Republic and Yemen saw increases of between 100,000 and 500,000 people displaced internally in 2021. In last year’s Global Trends report, UNHCR predicted that “the question is no longer if forced displacement will exceed 100 million people – but rather when”. The when is now? With millions of Ukrainians displaced and further displacement elsewhere in 2022, total forced displacement now exceeds 100 million people. This means 1 in every 78 people on earth has been forced to flee – a dramatic milestone that few would have expected a decade ago.

As new refugee situations emerge and intensify, and as existing ones reignite or remain unresolved, there is an acute need for durable solutions at increasing scale. What’s important to realize is that finding solutions for the displaced populations will also create a solution for the corporate world that is experiencing an exponentially growing shortage of talent

There is currently no concerted globally coordinated effort to analyse this populations’ professional backgrounds to see if they can be matched with employers globally who are experiencing dire shortage of staff.

It is because of this lack of global effort to create synergies between corporate employers in the developed world and the displaced populations globally that are few options for regular migration, for the vast majority of refugees and displaced persons. The rest are left to migrate irregularly, stay in the host countries, meaning they either work irregularly or not in their fields of training.

Not just companies, Jon Purizhansky points out, but actually entire countries are now facing skills gaps that are impeding their economic growth. Since the Second World War populations of the developed countries have both aged and have built generational wealth, which is employers report that talent shortages and difficulty filling positions. And the shortages are growing every month. The population of OECD countries is aging at the same their working-age population is shrinking. Without migration, by 2050, OECD countries will need 400 million more workers to maintain the working-age to elderly ratio that underpins their pension and health schemes. These demographics are relatively easy to reliably predict, and yet, to date, little is being done to prepare for this dramatic and unprecedented future. OECD countries are not likely to be able to meet their entire need for new workers by increasing birth rates.

Jon Purizhansky points that with the right kind of support, these shortages may be partially filled by assisting displaced populations and refugees fill the talent void. Migrants need more options for legal migration and companies need more flexible immigration systems so they can recruit internationally when they cannot find the local talent.

Jon Purizhansky says that focusing on human rights of refugees and creating economic opportunities for them benefits not just the refugees but the corporate world as well. Ultimately, the entire ecosystem will benefit as refugees will now move from uncertainty to certainty and will improve their lives economically; the employers will now secure the talent they need from amongst the refugee populations and the governments will benefit from reduction of illegal immigration and tax revenues that will inevitably come about as a result of the improved ecosystem.

As labor shortages will continue to grow, Jon Purizhansky predicts that more and more governments will realise that by creating better future for refugees they will improve their own economies greatly.

How fixing US immigration law can stabilize inflation

U.S. consumers are experiencing a dramatic increase in commodity prices. Currently, U.S. inflation is at 9.1% – the highest since 1981, with the United States Department of Labor ascribing the rise to price increases for fuel, food and housing.

While the country struggles to grapple with the crippling effects of inflation on the economy, in part by blaming the Russian-Ukraine conflict for the disruptions that have no apparent end in sight, one viable solution to the problem lies in fixing the outdated U.S. immigration laws.

Jon Purizhansky: According to a leading global recruitment company, the only way forward is for countries to rely on each other’s strengths to even out their weaknesses. Developed countries are mostly filled with aged citizens who have no interest in working, whereas underdeveloped countries are struggling to keep their population, which is mostly young vibrant individuals without jobs.

The economics are quite simple: lack of labor affects production volume, which in turn reduces supply, causing scarcity that drives up prices. Although countries such as Canada and other European nations have understood that labor shortages will kill their economy and have adjusted their immigration policies to fast-track the admission of qualified migrants, the U.S. continues to operate archaic immigration laws.

The situation is so absurd that while most advanced nations simply require a signed contract with a localized employer to grant you a work visa, recent government data projects that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will reject up to 82 percent of the H-1B registrations for high-skilled foreign nationals.

In the U.S., H-1B visas represent the only practical way for high-skilled foreign nationals, including international students, to work long-term. However, the annual limit of 85,000 (65,000 plus a 20,000 exemption for advanced degree holders from U.S. universities) caused the USCIS to reject more than 70% of the over 300,000 H-1B registrations for FY 2022.

The U.S. is rejecting hundreds of thousands of high-skilled professionals every year, by operating a faulty immigration policy predicated on flawed economic reasoning. The lump of labor fallacy being championed by Congress posits that job opportunities are fixed, meaning letting more people into the labor market would deprive American citizens of jobs.

As stock prices fall and the cost of commodities continues to rise, only a thorough reform of the current immigration policy will allow the much-needed help to find its way into the U.S. Once employers are allowed to attract foreign labor with work visas like it’s done all over the world, the labor force will be invigorated, production volumes will rise, and supply will match demand, driving down prices and ultimately reversing the upward trend of inflation.

Jon Purizhansky is founder and CEO of Joblio, a global social impact technology platform that assists refugees and labor migrants based in Buffalo.

Fixing Immigration Laws can stabilise Inflation

Jon Purizhansky ( Joblio.co ) says that for months now, consumers in the US have been experiencing an uptick in the prices of groceries and other commodities across the country. In May, the US government reported that inflation had jumped to a record 8.6% — the highest it has been since 1981, with the United States Department of Labor ascribing the rise in CPI to price increases for fuel, food, and housing.

Following the government’s inflation report, stock prices fell terribly as investors speculated on the Federal Reserve’s next move, which might involve hiking interest rates more sharply than expected. Already, the US Central Bank had begun tightening monetary policy in March and is expected to announce another half-point increase in its benchmark rate next week.

While the entire country struggles to grapple with the crippling effects of inflation on the economy — blaming the Russian-Ukraine conflict for the disruptions and market upsets that have no apparent end in sight, Joblio believes that the solution to the problem lies in fixing the outdated immigration laws that currently make it difficult for qualified migrants to join the US labor force.

According to the leading global recruitment company, the world is currently in a tricky situation where the only way forward is for countries to rely on each other’s strengths to even out their weaknesses. Developed countries are mostly filled with aged citizens who spent their youth building generational wealth and have no interest in working, whereas underdeveloped countries are struggling to keep their population under control — mostly filled with young vibrant individuals without jobs.

The economics around the problem is quite simple: lack of labor affects production volume, which in turn reduces supply, causing scarcity and driving up prices. Although countries such as Canada and other European nations have understood that labor shortages will kill their economy and have adjusted their immigration policies to fast-track the admission of qualified migrants into their labor force, the US continues to operate its archaic immigration laws that have turned the country’s borders into inverted funnels.

The situation is so absurd that while most advanced nations simply require a signed contract with a localized employer to grant you a work Visa, recent government data projects that the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will reject up to 82% of the H-1B registrations for high-skilled foreign nationals submitted in the most recent H-1B lottery.

Ex Manpower Group Executive Will Lead Refugee Hire Movement

David Arkless was appointed as Chairman of The Board at Joblio, a technological platform for cross-border employment.

Jon Purizhansky, the CEO of Joblio, announced today that David Arkless will be the Chairman of the Board of the company.

Joblio’s global platform eliminates the need for third parties, and it allows companies to get a more efficient and effective way to hire new workers. It offers a variety of user interfaces that help speed up the hiring process and improve the efficiency of its operations.

Since the beginning of the Russian invasion, Jobilio has helped hundreds of Ukrainian refugees fleeing the horrendous conflict to find employment in Canada, Germany, Romania, Poland.

David Arkless has an extensive experience in the HR industry and is regarded as a leading human rights expert.

As Chairman of the Board of Directors of Joblio, David will lead the company’s global expansion.

Joblio’s tech-enabled platform allows companies to conduct talent searches, to hire and manage cross-border workers.

The platform is and will always be free for the workers in accordance with the regulations of the International Labour Organisation.

With over 20 years of experience in international relations, David brings a unique perspective to the Board of Directors of Joblio. He has worked with various governments and international organizations in the UK, China, and the US.

As the Vice-President of the International Confederation of Private Employment Agencies (CIETT), he has been instrumental in the establishment of international initiatives aimed at fighting against human trafficking and slavery.

He is also a founding member of the California Act and the UK Modern Slavery Act. As Chairman of the Board of Directors of Joblio, he will continue to establish the gold standard of ethical and safe employment.

For over 20 years, David has been a significant member of the global HR industry landscape, and now, as the strategic leader of Joblio’s team, he believes that the company’s technology can help end the abuse of foreign and domestic workers. Despite the various initiatives that have been made to address the issue of human trafficking and slavery, the HR industry still has not come up with an effective global framework to protect workers.

Jon Purizhansky, CEO of Joblio: “ David is a recognized expert in the field of human capital management. Joblio managed to tackle an extremely complex operational process of cross-border employment and pack it in a user-friendly experience available on 4 interfaces. Employers in Canada and other countries, that provide employment to Ukrainian refugees, are the pioneers of the ethical employment movement.”

The global labor shortages are putting a strain on the supply chains of companies and organizations. Despite the calls to address these issues, the high churn rates that are affecting the hiring process have prevented employers from finding new workers.

One of the most effective ways to address the issue of labor shortages is by investing in the communities where migrant workers live and work. Through its proprietary program, Joblio is able to provide a more efficient way to recruit and train new workers. The company’s platform is designed to help organizations manage their post-arrival community management.

Joblio’s global platform eliminates the need for third parties, and it allows companies to get a more efficient and effective way to hire new workers. It offers a variety of user interfaces that help speed up the hiring process and improve the efficiency of its operations.

How Work Permits Turn Refugees Into An Economic Lifeline

The ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine has sparked a refugee crisis across Europe that threatens the largest humanitarian disaster since World War II. Nevertheless, the worst outcomes can still be avoided with sound work policies that teach companies the best practices for hiring Ukrainians. Fair work opportunities turn refugees into good neighbors.

Work permits, an ethical housing policy, and private-public partnerships can be used to avoid the worst humanitarian outcomes. Here’s how policy and humanity are coming together in Canada, Germany, and elsewhere to ensure refugees are an asset to society, not a burden.

Refugees Need Opportunity, Not Charity

The United Nations notes that well over 5 million Ukrainians have become refugees since February, with experts now predicting that the conflict will generate approximately 8.3 million refugees by the end of this year. Torn from their homes by the terrors of war, these refugees are on the move across Europe and over the Atlantic to find new opportunities in places like Germany, Poland, and Canada. Figuring out how to hire Ukrainains is now a top priority for many businesses in these countries facing a long-standing worker shortage.

The European community needs a sensible work policy to ensure these civilians receive the help they desperately deserve. While some opponents of humanitarian resettlement falsely argue that refugees are a burden on society, business owners and government officials alike increasingly recognize the immense value in helping refugees get back on their own feet.

“Refugees who are given adequate housing and fair work opportunities always give back to the societies that take them in,” notes global relocation expert and Joblio CEO Jon Purizhansky. “With sensible policies and clear integration goals, any society can avert humanitarian disaster and bolster up its own ailing economy.”

The best practices for hiring Ukrainian refugees are based on generosity and understanding.  In Germany and elsewhere in the EU, refugees entering the Schengen area can stay for up to 90 days without work and even longer once employment is secured. The Council of the EU and other authorities are already hard at work extending these policies to ensure Ukrainians can stay for longer. Once work is secured, Ukrainians begin giving back to the king societies that welcomed them in during a time of need.

Providing Fair Work Produces The Best Outcomes

The only surefire way to ensure refugees don’t fall into economic insecurity is by providing them with fair work opportunities. Even before the recent crisis, Germany and Poland were competing with one another over valuable Ukrainian migrant labourers who could fill vacant positions in a wide range of economic sectors. One survey by the EWL Group discovered that as many as 63% of displaced Ukrainians seek Polish work, with 30% indicating they’d stay in the country for a long time if they had adequate employment.

According to the EWL Group, the supermajority of these respondents were Ukrainian women, and most of them were college or university graduates. Polish companies that hire and resettle Ukrainains in need of a helping hand will benefit in the long run by tapping into this talented pool of educated employees. Ukrainians are already showcasing the potential of Ukrainian labour in the Polish and German economies.

An independent Polish news outlet reports that over 30,000 Ukrainians have already found good jobs in Poland. They’re especially needed in the health sector, but can also find use for their talents in the education, hospitality, and caregiving sectors. The best practices for hiring Ukrainians are quickly being adopted by smart companies with an eye on the future.

“Once they’re given a place to live, assistance with childcare, and fair wages for honest work, Ukrainian refugees can become an unparalleled engine of economic growth,” says Jon Purizhansky. “By training Ukrainian migrants today, countries like Poland and Germany will reap great economic and humanitarian rewards for generations to come.”

We Need More Fast-Tracks To Employment

No one country can solve this crisis alone. We need more fast-tracks to employment across the European Union and North America to ensure no Ukrainians are left behind. Across the Atlantic, Canada offers another example of how to make the best of this crisis with work permits and housing opportunities instead of restrictive policies. The best practices for hiring Ukrainains in Canada should be adopted everywhere.

That requires government investment in the streamlining of the work-visa permit process. To do that, governments can rely on expert private partners like Joblio, a global relocation platform that ensures migrants find safe and sustainable work abroad. Founded by a refugee turned successful entrepreneur, Joblio understands the plight of refugees and has already launched a program to help businesses hire Ukrainian women and manage the training of Ukrainian migrants.

This program is already yielding results for Ukrainians and Canadians alike thanks to Joblio’s new pilot program with a consortium of 12 Canadian companies. The first Ukrainian workers will be arriving one June 1st, ready and eager to fill vacant positions across Canada. Canada isn’t alone, either; the United States has launched the “Uniting for Ukraine” initiative that allows Ukrainian migrant labourers to stay temporarily in a two-year period of parole with the help of an American sponsor. Joblio has already secured 2,500 sponsorship opportunities for Ukrainians yearning to come to the United States so that they can contribute to its economy and their own upward mobility.“

Hardworking Ukrainians are ready to give back to Poland, Germany, Canada, and the United States,” says global relocation expert and Joblio CEO Jon Purizhansky. “Companies interested in learning how to hire Ukrainians can contact Joblio at no cost to avert a humanitarian disaster and fill worker shortages.”

Making Business Successful with Small Moves

Starting a small business can be frightening for beginners, and it requires plenty of careful planning. However, you need to be careful what strategies to apply to flourish your small business. Bigger plans don’t need to always work best, and you can always go on with small moves as well. The main part is that you must know how to tactfully apply those strategies. Flexibility and having good organizational skills will always lead to great success.

“The executive is the captain of the ship. When the ship sinks, the executive is the last person to step off the ship.” says Jon Purizhansky, the CEO of Joblio and a prominent New York lawyer. As an executive, the decisions you make will pave the way for the success of your business. This article covers some of the guidelines and tips that can help you make your business successful with small moves.

Organizational Skills

Being organized does not only refer to a neat and clean desk, but it involves time management logic and structure to manage life and increase efficiency both at home and in the workplace too. Good organizational skills in the workplace can surely help you prioritize work effectively. Also, you can improve workflow management if you have good organizational skills. Save time, reduced stress provide structure, prevent conflict with coworkers, save money, improve efficiency, and increase productivity.

As the CEO of a small business or startup, it is upon you to determine what your organizational structure will be. Jon Purizhansky states that “In a startup environment, the CEO is the person who sets strategies, goals, vision, mission, and establishes the company culture.” You should employ the same principle in your business.

Efficient Filing and Record-Keeping

This is very important. Having proper records of every business activity and keeping a check on the business insights will help you in the long run and will also save your time. When you fail to track proper records of your business activities, then it can have a detrimental impact on your efficiency, and most likely, there are no chances for your business to grow.

Prioritizing

It is very important to keep a track of all the outstanding tasks you have to complete with your team members. Being able to see the bigger picture, it will be easy for you to assess which of the tasks are urgent, important, or less important. However, make sure that you have your end goal in mind that you want to achieve. Maintaining good organizational skills for your business will also allow you to be flexible with the capacity to re-prioritize and move between tasks accordingly.

Delegation

Delegation does not mean only assigning tasks or positions to any random person. However, it means identifying trusted and capable candidates who can support your business and show their skills within the remit of their role. Providing support and guidance to your delegate will be beneficial in growing your business or bringing it one step forward towards the succeeding path.

Goal Setting

As an entrepreneur, you must possess the ability to set goals at work, and achieving them is reliant upon strong organizational skills and flexibility. Using a goal-oriented method of working allows you priority levels to your tasks. It may be helpful to first set your long-term goal, the outcome you are aiming towards, then break this down into smaller achievable tasks that you can tackle as an entrepreneur.

Learn from Your Competitors

To set your goals for greater success in your business, you must be able to identify your competitors and then analyze their success strategies. Once you succeed in finding out their success goals and methods, and if you implement them in your own business, then you may be lead your business towards a successful path.

Stay Focused and Be Creative

Your focus and creativity together can help you move your business towards the desired success road. However, it is not necessary that you will constantly be earning high profits or your business will instantly start to grow once you started. So you don’t need to lose your focus level here but remain consistent and firm to achieve your business targets. Also, focus on how you can be more creative in making your business products more attractive to the targeted customers. Make sure, you can stand out differently from your competitors. For this, you will need to various approaches and come up with highly-innovative ideas that are the best fit for your business.

Offer Great Service

Many businesses fail to understand the fact that providing great services to their valued customers is a vital part of your business. Always remember, whether you own a large company or a small business, customer feedback and opinion about your business’s services matter a lot. Once you provide them with their desired products of good quality or great services, they will become your regular customers and they can spread the goodwill of your business as well.

Bottom Line

Business goals are a significant part of establishing priorities and setting your business for success over some time. However, about 20 percent of businesses may succeed in the initial stage of starting a business. so there is no hassle. Normally businesses take time to grow and become popular. The main part is to focus and devote time to your business and also implement the above-mentioned tips to help succeed your business.

As Jon Purizhansky says, “There will be ups and downs — people getting excited or disappointed — and as the CEO I may have to make decisions that don’t make everyone happy.” Therefore, make sure to be confident in your decisions, and they will help you steer your company to success.

Best Practices For Hiring Ukrainians In Canada

Canada has received nearly 60,000 applications from Ukrainian refugees since March 22nd, leading businesses across the country to search for the best practices for hiring Ukrainians. Many HR departments want to know how to hire Ukrainians, yet not all of them are sure which industries hire Ukrainians or what skills these talented migrants possess.

Implementing the best practices for hiring Ukrainians across essential industries will be vital for Canada’s economic future. Here are the secrets for hiring Ukrainian labour and how to ensure these talented workers feel at home in the Great White North.

Understand The Basics – Do Ukrainians Speak English?

Some companies are eager to hire Ukrainian labour but have a few questions before they onboard new talent. Do Ukrainians speak English? Are there Ukrainians with college degrees who can be recruited for advanced industries? What skills do Ukrainians have that Canadian companies can make immediate use of? Understanding the answers to these questions is the first step in implementing the best practices for hiring Ukrainians across the country.

Ukraine is a bilingual country where most can fluently speak either Ukrainian, Russian, or both languages. Younger Ukrainans are more likely to understand and speak English fluently than their older peers, and Canadian Immigration Minister Sean Fraser has already announced a government effort to educate incoming Ukrainians in English and French. Most of these Ukrainians are talented women from a variety of backgrounds with a wide degree of skills that can be put to use in different industries.

According to a 2019 report by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Ukraine “ranks fourth in the world in the number of people with a higher education,” with a 100% literacy rate amongst its younger generations. The 2017/18 school year saw over 1.5 million Ukrainian students enrolled in higher education, something that will surely assist Canadian employers training Ukrainian migrants in the coming months. Female Ukrainians can quickly fill vacant positions across the Canadian economy in the hospitality, caregiving, and logistical sectors.

“Ukrainians with college degrees and working class Ukrainians with valuable trade skills can make massive contributions to Canada’s economy,” according to global relocation expert Jon Purizhansky. “Canadian businesses will benefit tremendously from hiring female Ukrainian labourers.”

Which Industries Hire Female Ukrainians In Canada?

Countless Canadian companies are already eager to hire talented Ukrainians fleeing the Russian invasion. According to Monte McNaughton, minister of labour for Ontario, Canada there are now “more than 30,000 jobs waiting for Ukrainians” in the province. Businesses looking to hire in the hospitality, caregiving, and cleaning sectors will need to put together competitive offers to lure in the best talent.

Food processors, bakeries, warehouses, logistical centers, and retailers are all eager to hire as many talented Ukrainians as they can. According to the Canadian government, immigrants now account for nearly 100% of the Canadian labour force’s growth. Key sectors like healthcare have already been supercharged by immigration, indicating that Ukrainians with college degrees will make a very positive impact in certain critical hiring sectors.

“A company that wants to hire Ukrainian women or create a program for training Ukrainian migrants will be able to outcompete others locally and globally,” says Jon Purizhansky. “It’s a win-win situation for Canadians and Ukrainians alike.”

Not enough time has elapsed yet to determine specific hiring trends related to Ukrainian labour, but the coming months will doubtlessly see increased economic activity as a result of skilled Ukrainian labour pouring into Canada’s vital industries.

Training Ukrainian Migrants For Success In Canada

HR departments looking to recruit skilled Ukrainian labour must take certain steps to ensure smooth assimilation and long-term economic success for everyone involved. Training Ukrainian migrants as they arrive and developing both English and French language courses will be essential for the continued growth of Canada’s labour force in the 21st century.

“Businesses need to be hands-on when it comes to providing housing, language services, cultural integration support, and childcare if they want to hire Ukrainian women,” Jon Purizhansky notes. “The best practices for hiring Ukrainians will always put the wellbeing of people first, understanding that economic success always follows when workers are treated well.”

Are you interested in learning how to hire Ukrainians in Canada? Joblio is leading an international humanitarian effort to assist Ukrainians fleeing peril. By providing critical expertise that helps companies and nonprofits provide housing, employment, and childcare to Ukrainians fleeing the conflict, Joblio is making a difference and reshaping the future of human migration.

Joblio has been tirelessly assisting companies with the hiring of Ukrainian refugees.  We are working with a consortium of 12 Canadian companies who expressed their interest in hiring Ukrainian refugees.  Through our offices in Poland, Romania, and Moldova we have the candidate to fill these job positions in Canada, primarily in the Toronto area at present, but with greater national capacity in the coming months.
