This will help to minimize unemployment among the citizens of the country.
Authorities are discussing the possibility of introducing regulations in Russia, which will oblige leaders in the hiring of employees for skilled job to give preference to Russian citizens and not foreigners. Consultations about this are on the basis of the group to implement the concept of state migration policy of the presidential administration, explained to “Izvestia”. The measure will protect Russians, however, the flow of migrant workers in the country is already declining, experts say. Besides, they don’t know what to do, if the citizens themselves will give up a particular work.
the fact that officials are conducting consultations about the introduction in Russia of “measures to ensure priority of employment for national staff for skilled jobs,” the report says the Ministry of labor, with which acquainted “Izvestia”. The paper reported on the implementation of the General agreement between trade unions, employers and the government in 2019. Also in the consultations discussed the issues of improving the procedure of determining the need for foreign labour force, development and implementation of policy in the field of labour migration, indicated in the document.
“news” sent a request to the labour Ministry and the presidential administration with the request to tell about the discussion.
However, the government regulates the number of latest, establishing the allowable percentage employees-foreigners for a number of industries. For example, this year the decision of the government to construction companies and 80% of workers may be migrants, in companies that are engaged in the cultivation of vegetables, half and pharmacies, to attract such employees is prohibited. Regional authorities regulate the number of issued patents.
the Device is highly qualified foreigners to employers is more difficult, although the quotas do not apply to them. You need to obtain permission from the interior Ministry to pay a state fee (10 thousand rubles per person), to issue request and letter of guarantee for visa purposes.
stricter quotas for foreign labor force for several years, insist the unions, explained “news” the rector of the Financial University under the government of the Russian Federation Alexander Safonov. The topic is of particular popularity in the crisis, when rising unemployment, he said.
In Western countries this idea is implemented in the following way. The entrepreneur goes to the state structure that he needed to hire highly skilled employee-foreigner. Officials assess whether you want to close this position national frame if not allowed to hire a foreigner, usually for several months. This time try to use, h■ to train its employees — said the expert.
the Efforts of the state, it would be logical to focus on the retention of national staff in the country and to prevent “brain drain”, said the expert.
According to the UN, Russia in the number of migrant workers is second only to the United States and Germany — in our country there are about 11 million people, said associate Professor of the Department of Commercial industrial chamber of REU them. G. V. Plekhanov Farida Mirzabalaeva. Therefore, one of the main tasks of the state migration policy — development of effective approaches to regulation of labor migration, aimed at protecting the national labour market and the interests of the economy, he said. Today the state statistics does not allow to make sex, age, qualification, educational structure of employment of migrant workers, so it is impossible to assess the effectiveness of their work and the needs of the economy for foreign workers, said Farida Mirzabalaeva.
However, the implementation of measures can be problems with the staff in terms of filling workplaces with low wages that are not in demand among Russian workers, said the expert.
If you give priority to Russians, it is not clear how to monitor compliance with the rules, noticed Vice President RSPP Fyodor Prokopov. The question is, what criteria can be determined that Russian citizens do not want or are not suitable for any work, he said.
In the first quarter of this year, the purpose of the trip “work” or “business” at the entrance to Russia indicated 1.6 million foreigners. These data are presented in the Unified interdepartmental information system, citing the Federal security service. A year earlier in the first quarter, the figure was nearly a quarter more in January-March 2019 with your work or business in Russia moved 1.9 million foreigners.
the majority of labour migrants in 2020 came from Uzbekistan (400 thousand people), Tajikistan (237 thousand), Russia (134 million) and Ukraine (68 thousand). Last year five the leaders was the same.
