Russian holidays - Unemployment Protection Day

Every citizen of Russia has the right to paid work. Unemployment is a common occurrence in our country. Unfortunately, no state will be able to completely eradicate this problem. The task of a developed society is to minimize the percentage of the unemployed population. Unemployment Protection Day was first celebrated on May 21, 1992, after the existence of such a phenomenon was recognized at the state level a year earlier. The date was not established by any decrees, but in fact it exists. In ITAR-TASS, the day was first mentioned in the “Calendar of Dates and Events”. The purpose of the holiday is to direct public interest in such an important topic. In another way it is called the day to combat unemployment. State employment services are being created in Russia. On this day they hold various events: - job fairs, - advanced training courses, - testing for job seekers, - professional retraining. Tests make it possible to determine the field of activity that is most suitable. They are conducted for further training and employment. Personnel retraining is the main weapon in the fight against unemployment. It is precisely because of the low demand for a profession that a person can be left without a livelihood. Operational retraining is a way out of the situation. On May 21, factories and organizations hold an open day for those persons referred by employment services. The issue of lack of jobs can cause a loss of skills among the population, irritation of the masses and dissatisfaction with the authorities. Another problem is that our fellow citizens have a constant fear of losing their jobs. To resolve this, conferences are held with government officials. On this day, ways to resolve the issue are discussed, for example, increasing social guarantees. On this holiday, we congratulate all those who work in employment services and other bodies whose activities are related to the reduction of unemployment in the country.
