At the meeting, the regions with the best performance in project implementation discussed the most effective work formats. In particular, they spoke about the “Mentoring” format. It involves assigning United Russia members who are entrepreneurs or company managers as professional mentors for people who want to find a job or develop a career. These mentors help people shape their career path, create an individual training plan and provide recommendations.
Of course, one of our priorities is to help special operations personnel returning from the front. To employ them in 2024, more than 1,500 events were organized, more than 3,500 people participated in them, and almost 900 veterans found employment.
At our meeting, special attention was paid to the retraining and employment of veterans of the Northern Military District in agricultural enterprises. A database of vacancies in this area is currently being formed in order to provide them with jobs with a sufficiently high salary level. The leading agricultural enterprises of our country have already joined this process: EkoNiva, Miratorg, Agropromkomplektatsiya, Malino and others.
In addition, United Russia, together with Rosselkhozbank, plans to organize additional enrollment of interested veterans of the Northern Military District in the School of Farmers, which will allow students to start a business in the agricultural sector from scratch.
Another important area that we are launching within the framework of the “My Career with United Russia” project is career guidance for veterans of special operations who were directly injured in rehabilitation sites.
Sometimes the treatment of wounded SVO participants and their subsequent recovery lasts several months. The Ministry of Defence has developed effective work among such patients to prepare them for further service in the Armed Forces (in military registration and enlistment offices, military units, etc.). However, not all of them plan to remain in military service, which means that it is necessary to provide vocational guidance, profiling, training and employment services in various civilian organizations directly in the medical and sanatorium institutions of the Ministry of Defence. If during treatment a soldier understands that he has prospects, this has a positive effect on both recovery and psychological rehabilitation.
Our party and the Moscow region employment service have already conducted the first individual consultations with the support of the Ministry of Labour and Social Protection at the Arkhangelskoye Central Military Clinical Sanatorium in Krasnogorsk near Moscow. The servicemen were taught how to write a resume correctly, they were helped to register with the employment service as job seekers, register on the “Work in Russia” portal and sign up for consultations on vocational guidance and retraining.
Since the patient population in hospitals and sanatoriums is constantly changing, we decided that such visits should be carried out regularly. Moreover, at our meeting both the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Labour declared their readiness to actively participate in this work within the framework of our project. We look forward to fruitful cooperation.
