LEGAL AND SOCIAL GUARANTEES
Azat Artsakh, Nagorno Karabakh Republic [NKR]
07 Aug 2006
The NKR law on employment and social security on unemployment
has been enacted. An important thing about it is that it provides
for free of charge vocational training. For instance, a citizen
finished a vocational college in the Soviet Union and was trained
to be builder. In ten years, the corresponding commission gives
him degree 5 qualification. However, the experienced worker becomes
jobless, and is registered with the local agency of unemployment,
and gets an unemployment benefit. In this stage, he can use his
right for free of charge vocational training. He complies with all
the requirements, namely one year of insurance, vocational education
and qualification. He can enroll in special classes to his skills
and get a higher qualification. This is what Article 18 provides
for. Article 30 provides for a scholarship. Since he is unemployed
and gets an unemployment benefit, his scholarship will be 120 percent
of unemployment benefit, i.e. 10,800 drams a month, whereas formerly
the scholarship was 4680 drams a month. On July 10, 50 unemployed
people enrolled in computer classes, including 20 in Stepanakert, 10
in Martakert, Martuni and Askeran each. The computer classes are held
in the framework of the program worked out by the Ministry of Social
Security and funded by the state fund of social security. Considering
the demand of the labor market, the Ministry of Social Security will
enroll another 30 people in these classes. In 2005, the government
allocated 45,000 drams, including a 21,600 monthly scholarship per
person for two-month classes. However, there are specialties, which
require a longer duration of the course, namely 4 months. For these
courses, the government will have to pay 75,000 drams per person.
