Commission`s Opinion – EU acquis Chapter 2

Early stage of preparation (1)

Ukraine is at an early stage of preparation in the free movement of workers. It will need to align its legislation in a comprehensive way with the relevant EU acquis and EU case law. It will also need to strengthen its administrative capacity, inter-institutional cooperation and ability to coordinate internationally. Among others, there is a need for capacity building as regards EU social security coordination and the distinction between social security and social assistance.
