The Local Enterprise Offices and Enterprise Ireland provide advice and assistance to indigenous businesses to help them start-up, grow and eventually develop their export potential. As such they do not provide any financial benefits to businesses for transportation costs for employees who are Ukrainian refugees.

The Revenue Commissioners provides guidance on its website on payments made by employers towards the cost of travel for employees so this could be explored as a possible avenue for this benefit.
