The national project "Personnel" will make it possible to synchronize the needs of the economy and personnel training. This was announced by Tatyana Golikova, Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation, during the online marathon of the federal stage of the All-Russian Employment Fair "Work of Russia. Time of Opportunities" in the pavilion of the Government Coordination Centre at the International RUSSIA EXPO.

The central session of the business program of the All-Russian Employment Fair, dedicated to the new national project "Personnel" and forecasting staffing needs, was held in the mode of teleconference in two studios at once: in Moscow and in the city of Tosno, Leningrad region, the site of the All-Russian Employment Fair.

Participants in the session included Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade Ekaterina Priezzheva, Deputy Minister of Agriculture Ksenia Shevelkina, Deputy Minister of Education Anastasia Zyryanova, State Duma deputy Andrei Isaev, Deputy Chairman of the FNPR (Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Russia) Nina Kuzmina, Vice President for Social Policy and Labor Relations of the RSPP (Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs) Viktor Cherepov, representatives of JSC Russian Railways, JSC Apatit, JSC Roskar Poultry Farm, PJSC Vyborg Shipyard, JSC Tikhvin Freight Car Building Plant, LLC Kingisepp Plant.

"The national project will make it possible to synchronize the needs of the economy and personnel training. Therefore, our key task in working on the project is to build a clear interaction between employers, institutions of higher and secondary vocational education. Now we are at the stage of forming the key contours of the future national project. We are waiting for proposals from the regions, our social partners: employers and trade unions. In just the next two weeks the national project "Personnel" will be presented to the chairman of the government, and on September 1 — to the head of state. By that time the project will be financially approved and all the funds necessary for its implementation will be included in the draft federal budget for the next budget cycle," said Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Tatyana Golikova.

One of the events of the national project will be the preparation of a five-year plan of staffing needs, which will be updated annually. This forecast will be the basis for the distribution of admission control figures.

"Five years ago, less than half of college students studied in technical fields. Simply put, they were recruited not under the needs of the economy, but as it was customary or convenient for colleges. We have changed the structure of admission. Now the enrollment in technical specialties is more than 56%. Practical training of college students has been strengthened. If earlier the curriculum was dominated mainly by theoretical training, now practice takes about 80% — this is what today's secondary vocational education is based on", — said Deputy Minister of Education Anastasia Zyryanova.

The necessity of linking personnel training to the real needs of the economy is noted by the country's largest employers, who presented their personnel practices at the All-Russian Employment Fair.

"In order to cope with the current challenges of the labor market, we keep in focus two basic tasks: the forecast of staffing needs and the organization of personnel training. For example, in order to train specialists with secondary vocational education, the company has joined the federal project "Professionalism". Today, ten railroad clusters have been opened across the country, and two more will be opened this year. This is a good example of cooperation between the state, employers and educational organizations," said Dmitry Shakhanov, Deputy Director General of JSC Russian Railways, one of the participants of the platform.

During the implementation of the national project, 100% of schoolchildren will be covered by career guidance activities. The session participants shared their experience of career guidance work.

"Over the period from 2023 to 2024, more than 800 schoolchildren got acquainted with the main professions of the plant, learned about the advantages of working at an industrial enterprise and production opportunities. This is done to make the kids understand that having received a working specialty, they will be in demand and will be able to continue their professional development path at our enterprise," Evgeny Kuzmenko, CEO of JSC Tikhvin Freight Car Building Plant, shared at the site in Tosno.

Employment support measures will cover more than 150 thousand adult job seekers annually. These include free retraining, subsidized hiring, equipping workplaces for specialists with special needs and subsidizing labor mobility. Employers are already actively involved in the work on adult retraining.

"KMZ LLC has a strong tool in its structure — its own training centre, which allows to obtain a working profession or a new specialization, ensuring the closure of internal staffing needs. Our HR concept also provides for an attractive system of employee motivation, emphasis on comfortable teamwork, and the possibility of realizing individual career trajectories. Current conditions dictate the need to combine the efforts of industrialists, education and government bodies to create conditions for the productive provision of enterprises with qualified workers. Popularization and formation of prestige of working professions is the main common task," said Vyacheslav Rudenkov, Technical Director of Kingisepp Machine-Building Plant LLC, a participant of the online session.

The All-Russian Employment Fair is held annually on behalf of the President. More than 2 thousand sites took part in the federal stage of the All-Russian Employment Fair, where 18.5 thousand organizations presented their vacancies. During the online marathon of the All-Russian Employment Fair, four sessions were organized in eight regions — district capitals of the fair. Youth employment was discussed in Vladivostok and Omsk, industrial staffing — in Yekaterinburg and Ufa, services for job seekers and employers, as well as the best corporate practices — in Mineralnye Vody and Krasnodar.

The All-Russian Employment Fair is organized by the Russian Ministry of Labor and regional employment centres with the participation of the RSPP, FNPR, sectoral associations of employers and trade unions, educational organizations, public associations, and the Russian Student Squads. Information support for the events of the All-Russian Employment Fair is provided by ANO "National Priorities" and ANO "Dialogue".
