Pro­gramme 1 · Fun­dacja Finaks

Helping foreigners and refugees into work

We help for­eign­ers and refugees, mainly from Ukraine and Be­larus, find stable em­ploy­ment in Poland and settle into a new work­place.

We be­lieve that every­one who comes to our coun­try de­serves decent work and real sup­port in the first, most dif­fi­cult months. Look­ing for a job in a new coun­try can be hard not only be­cause of the lan­guage bar­rier, but also be­cause of dif­fer­ences in reg­u­la­tions, work cul­ture and the job market itself. We aim to be the first point of con­tact that helps you sort all of this out.

Who it is for

  • ✓For­eign­ers and refugees living in the Pod­laskie Voivode­ship and the sur­round­ing area who are look­ing for work
  • ✓Em­ploy­ers who want to leg­ally employ a for­eigner and need help with the form­al­it­ies

What our support involves

  • ✓Help with find­ing a job – career guid­ance, help with pre­par­ing a CV and pointing you to job offers that match your qualifications
  • ✓Help with Polish – in­di­vidual sup­port in learn­ing the Polish needed in the work­place
  • ✓Help with ad­apt­ing at work – sup­port during the first weeks of em­ploy­ment: ex­plain­ing duties, work cul­ture, health and safety rules (BHP) and em­ployee rights in Poland
  • ✓Advice for em­ploy­ers – help with leg­al­ising the em­ploy­ment of a for­eigner: doc­u­ments, work per­mits, re­gis­tra­tion with ZUS and other au­thor­it­ies

How to get in touch

Con­tact us by phone (+48 513 269 821) or email (biuro@finaks.com.pl) and de­scribe your situ­ation. Sup­port for job seekers is free of charge. We re­spond to every en­quiry and agree on a plan of action to­gether.

Why contact us

This pro­gramme is at the heart of our mission – at least 70% of new jobs in our found­a­tion are cre­ated spe­cific­ally for for­eign­ers and refugees, so we know from ex­per­i­ence what en­ter­ing the Polish labour market looks like, both form­ally and on a human level.
