Applications for workers come from employers who need specific tasks. An example of such work is the weaving of camouflage nets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"657\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-657x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-657x1024.jpg 657w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-192x300.jpg 192w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-768x1197.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1-128x200.jpg 128w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/1.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 657px) 100vw, 657px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Army of Recovery project participants at work organized by the NGO Pravo.

In February 2024, the NGO &#8220;Pravo&#8221; hired the first 17 people. Now, the number of people engaged in public service work is over 200,&#8221; <\/em>says <strong>Vitalii Dorokh<\/strong>, head of the NGO &#8220;Pravo&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The process is as follows. The organization requests the Employment Center for the required number of people. They are deregistered and sent to perform socially beneficial work. During this work, they are credited with seniority, paid the minimum wage, and all necessary payments are made to the budget. Upon completion, the participants return to the employment center to look for a permanent job in their specialty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The advantage of this initiative is that there are no strict requirements for participants. It is enough to register at the employment center and desire to work. This allows a wide range of people to participate in the project, which is especially important in times of war when many people have lost their jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"764\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/28d3e1ff-d6de-41e2-a1db-4964f744ca3e-764x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23157\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/28d3e1ff-d6de-41e2-a1db-4964f744ca3e-764x1024.jpeg 764w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/28d3e1ff-d6de-41e2-a1db-4964f744ca3e-224x300.jpeg 224w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/28d3e1ff-d6de-41e2-a1db-4964f744ca3e-768x1029.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/28d3e1ff-d6de-41e2-a1db-4964f744ca3e-149x200.jpeg 149w, https:\/\/ldn.org.ua\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/28d3e1ff-d6de-41e2-a1db-4964f744ca3e.jpeg 897w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 764px) 100vw, 764px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Photo: NGO &#8220;Pravo&#8221;.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, Vitalii Dorokh notes that their organization faces specific difficulties. For example, the funds provided by the Employment Center can only be used to pay salaries and taxes. They do not consider the cost of bank fees and additional work for the accountant. This creates additional challenges that the organization solves through volunteer efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><em>&#8220;However, the practice of temporary employment has proven its effectiveness and can be a model for other public organizations.
