The article is devoted to the theoretical and legal problems of ensuring the right to work guaranteed by the Constitution of Ukraine to citizens, in particular internally displaced persons (IDPs), during the war in Ukraine, which requires special protection by the authorities and authorized bodies.
 It was found that the needs of IDPs cover a wide range, but among the professional needs, the most relevant is work in a specialty, therefore, it is advisable, if possible, to transfer business, create jobs, create new enterprises precisely in the regions that today accept people fleeing from wars and occupations
 It was emphasized that the "Unity for Action” program is operating in Ukraine, which unites internally displaced persons, host communities and specialized organizations on the path of longterm integration of internally displaced persons in Ukraine, and the goal of this project is to strengthen the social capital of IDPs, make them less vulnerable, to ensure IDPs' own contribution to the development of integration plans.
 It is noted that the issue of employment is considered today in the context of the general socialization of IDPs, which implies the desire of people to integrate into the society where they currently live. The legislation of Ukraine guarantees the provision of the right to work through legal protection, which makes it impossible to have an illegal, biased attitude of the employer towards an internally displaced person.
 Attention is drawn to the fact that a significant obstacle to the employment of IDPs during the war can be the lack of all necessary documents in person. Documents can be lost or destroyed during evacuation, so today social services and relevant authorized state bodies are working on restoring such documents using simplified procedures.
 It is noted that there are persons from among IDPs who do not want to be employed, citing certain reasons, which, as a rule, are unjustified and far-fetched (loss of financial support and state benefits upon employment; inability to work parttime, etc.).
