Metinvest’s Veteran Support Experience Features in “WE” Documentary Series by UN Global Compact in Ukraine
Metinvest Group has been operating in wartime conditions since 2014, with enterprises located close to the front line. In the documentary series “WE” by the UN Global Compact in Ukraine, Tetiana Petruk, chief sustainability officer of Metinvest, explains how the Group is building a comprehensive ecosystem for reintegrating veterans.“At the end of 2022, we began building not just a project, but a comprehensive ecosystem for reintegrating veterans.

At the same time, it represents significant opportunities for people: today, around 4,000 vacancies are open across the Group’s enterprises,” Petruk said.Over more than a decade of war, around 11,000 Metinvest employees have joined Ukraine’s defence forces. Of these, 1,000 veterans have returned to work, while over 8,000 continue to defend the country in the Armed Forces, National Guard and other units.Metinvest has
