More than 40 big European firms pledge to hire and train 250,000 Ukrainian and other refugees.
Amazon has pledged to hire 5,000 Ukrainian and other refugees in Europe as part of a wider drive to help people fleeing persecution.
Margaritis Schinas, Vice-President of the European Commission, said far too many refugees could not find work. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the number of Ukrainian refugees living in Europe stands at more than 5.9 million. In addition, staffing agencies such as Adecco will help 150,000 find work, while the likes of Accenture and Microsoft will help train more than 86,000.
