Ukraine Crisis Felt in Kenya by Freelancers: Its now deepening with the current Russian Approval of Military force

The crisis in Ukraine has been felt in Kenya. This is as a result of banks closure in Ukraine hence unable to transfer payments to a number of Kenyans who are freelancers. Ukraine is a country that has continuously relied on Kenyans to deliver them online jobs for their clients in various sectors across the world.

With the approval of the use of military force in Ukraine by Russian House deepens the crisis hence more effects are expected.

Most of these companies are those agents who take or receive requests for temporal/permanent employees to tackle various assignments, tasks and projects among others. These agent companies have a hub of employees in Kenya.

In the recent few years, Kenya has experienced increase direct foreign remittance which among them includes such payouts. This business has been growing given that most Kenyans, who are students, or otherwise self employed, while others work and still manage to handle this job as well, also want to sustain the high standards of living besides improving their even growing needs.

Here are the messages from one of the agent companies.

"Dear Valued employees,

Unfortunately, due to the current situation in the country, there will be some delay with salary pay out. The delay is caused by the PrivatBank policy. We are sorry for the incovenience and want to assure you that we are doing everything possible to speed up the process. Your salaries will be paid out as soon as possible. We will keep you updated on the progress.

Good news!

The payout has already started!

Since the exchange rate keeps changing, we have to fix it at today's Privatbank rate USD1=UAH 9.5"
