Summary/Abstract: Migration is not a new phenomenon in the modern world, but the war against Ukraine initiated by Russia in 2022 has transformed it into an unprecedented global challenge. The aim of this work is to analyze labor market, employment, and job opportunities in host countries for migrant women from Ukraine. A qualitative analysis of scientific publications, documents, and statistical reports is used in this work. Our results reveal that economies in the host countries, namely Czech Republic, Germany, Poland, and Türkiye, are projected to show robust growth. Therefore, the labor market in these countries will accordingly increase. However, there is a discrepancy between required professions and actual employment of Ukrainian females in host countries. Czech Republic and Germany preferable need employees in engineering and technical fields while Poland and Türkiye experience the lack of employees in the service sector (health and hospitality, accordingly). In host countries, Ukrainian females have to simultaneously combine their jobs with caring about their family’s disadvantaged members (children and older generation representatives) and language courses. These issues, namely skill recognition, language proficiency, and family situation, postpone the employment of Ukrainian females in jobs in host countries relevant to their educational and employment background.
