Blood Donor Guarantees: What Employees Need to Know — New Video on Union TV

Union TV has released a new video for employees who plan to become blood donors or are already participating in donation. During wartime, the need for donor blood in Ukraine has increased dramatically, and workers should be aware of the labor rights and protections guaranteed to them.

In this video, Kateryna Shvets, a lawyer at Labor Initiatives NGO, explains:

• what rights blood donors have at the workplace;
• how to properly document an absence from work due to donation;
• what additional guarantees and benefits are provided by Ukrainian legislation.

The video includes practical guidance on documentation, entitlement to paid rest days, compensation, and other important aspects employees should know to confidently exercise their rights.

If you have further questions, the lawyers at Labor Initiatives are ready to help.
