Company ERG and NCE RK "Atameken" launch a joint project in the field of employment of population. Company ERG decided to modernize production, which led to a reduction in a large part of the employees. However, people will not be left without work. According to the director of the Department for Employment Issues of NCE Atameken Zhenisbek Dulatov. The National Council has already a proposal for the effective use of the labor resources. "We are launching a new project in Kazakhstan in the field of employment. This project will be launched in a pilot mode, and if it is successful, we will encourage the business community to implement similar projects in other regions and with other companies", - he said. For example, there is a whole list of goods that are purchased for the most part abroad. Within the framework of the project, entrepreneurs will be offered to localize these goods in Kazakhstan, involving those employees whom the company intends to release, and in those regions where the company intends to reduce the number of staff. For investors who want to do this, the sale of goods for the next 5 years will be guaranteed. ERG will act in the role of the buyer, which will purchase the product produced by its former employees for 5 years or more. One of the main conditions for an entrepreneur who has decided to take up this project will be the obligation to hire laid-off workers. As a result, cooperation is beneficial for all parties. Despite the reduction in staff, the company will purchase certain goods in any case, since this is necessary for its further industrial operation, and the project will allow it to purchase the finished product from its former employees. Thus, thanks to the project initiated by the National Project, a third participant will also appear, which will also achieve its goal in establishing its own production and obtaining guaranteed sales. "We will help in the issues of retraining as well, through training centers by retraining personnel, in which the National Parliament is actively involved", - said Dulatov. "There is nothing complicated in this, because the entrepreneur, in any case, needs to train the personnel in production - we do not have ready specialists who would have made the same helmets all their lives". Dulatov noted that this project was actually launched, since there already exists a list of goods that need to be produced. And it includes 12 items. "And this is only the beginning - the company has other positions for which they need to buy goods. But first we want to establish the production of these goods, because they are the most suitable for localization", - says the representative of the National Chamber. All entrepreneurs who want to start their own production in these positions need to contact the Atameken. "The Chamber is ready to help in obtaining a contract for domestic entrepreneurs who have the means for such a business. We are ready to help in the issue of receiving funds for the production of goods, in particular, negotiating with STBs. Banks should meet halfway, as there will be valid sales contracts for products for 5 years", - said Dulatov. There are few requirements to the entrepreneurs: it must be a Kazakhstani enterprise, the future producer must possess certain means, financial justification and good quality goods. The manufacturer will be presented with general criteria for goods and the amount of purchase. All they have to do to calculate the profitability of production and to come to us with a business plan. As it was noted by Dulatov, the best projects will be chosen by a special commission, which will pay attention to both the quality of the future product and the cost of its production. One of the first regions where this project will be launched will be the Kostanay region. At the same time, the representative of NCE "Atameken" stressed that other options will be considered if this is justified from the point of view of logistics and raw materials. The localization of certain goods is not the only goal of the project. The development of small and medium-sized businesses is equally important, as well as the employment of released employees", - concluded Dulatov. He added that a similar project could be launched in other large companies, for which staff reduction will be the only possible solution to financial problems.
