Stenyakina spoke about the new conditions for obtaining the status of “young specialist”

“This whole story was born in the Rostov region at a meeting with working youth, where the guys from one large company complained to us that they could not take advantage of the support measures that this company provides... They work in their specialty after higher education, but , while students, they also officially worked. And it turns out that they are no longer young specialists,” the parliamentarian explained.

According to her, at the moment, according to the law, a young specialist is a young man who has received an education in basic educational programs and is employed in his specialty for the first time.

“That is, if he has work experience, if he has official work experience, then he is no longer a young specialist and, accordingly, he cannot use support measures. We will consider a young specialist to be a young person who gets a job in his specialty; his previous work experience is not taken into account,” emphasized RT’s interlocutor.

At the same time, she noted that there are young people who go to work without education, and there are those who get a job outside their specialty.

“The Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of the Southern Federal University, for example, trains excellent specialists who work not as mathematicians, but as analysts in large financial companies, including banks, they also do not work in their specialty. That is why we propose to introduce the term “young worker” for such guys, that is, those who get a job without receiving an education, or who do not work in their specialty. They can, working in one place for at least three years, benefit from support measures in the same way,” the deputy said.

The State Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Affairs is a co-executive committee, Stenyakina added.

“We are reviewing this document first. Today, all colleagues from all factions unanimously supported these changes. Now the committee on youth policy should consider this, and then the first hearing at a meeting of the State Duma,” the parliamentarian concluded.

Earlier, State Duma deputy Ivan Sukharev proposed creating a state mechanism for searching and attracting young specialists from foreign countries to the national economy.
