What are work brigades?
Work brigades are groups of qualified workers who are working as a team for temporary job assignments.
The idea of work brigades originated from the construction industry where construction site managers were looking for established teams for specific temporary job assignments without the need to hire subcontracting companies.
Today, work brigades are common for seasonal or temporary work assignments abroad where the hiring of individual workers and the consequential team-building process do not fit into the limited project timeframe or work visa regime.

Why are brigades the better and cheaper solution for Ukrainians working abroad?
We strongly believe in the advantages of work brigades in comparison to individual staff recruitment for work abroad assignments for Ukrainian candidates.
The majority of Ukrainian workers want to spend regularly some time at home with their families. They are hesitant to move alone abroad to an employer they do not know and to work and live with strangers. They are concerned due to many fraudulent agencies and abusive employers that the promised work and housing conditions are actually delivered and their salaries are paid in a fair and transparent way.
Employers are looking for stable employment of staff they can rely on. They do not want to permanently train new staff and are concerned about high turnover rate of existing long-term staff from Ukraine. They are ending up with a patch work of local and international staff fighting with cultural and language barriers.
