ArmInfo. The provision of assistance to seasonal workers involved in agricultural work will be taken up by the regional centers of the State Employment Service Agency. The decision was made at the June 20 meeting of the RA government.
According to the Minister of Labor and Social Affairs of the Republic of Armenia Zaruhi Batoyan, previously the program was implemented by the Agricultural Development Fund, which was liquidated in 2019. In this regard, it became necessary to define a new regulatory body, which will become the Agency of the State Employment Service and its regional structures. The total cost of the program is 638 million drams. Within the framework of the project, it is envisaged to conclude agreements with 2400 landowners with an area of at least 3 hectares about attracting 2,923 beneficiaries to seasonal work, announced before May 31 this year in regional employment centers. It is planned that their daily income will be 4 thousand drams, and when working with their own agricultural equipment - 5 thousand drams per hour. Citizens who participate in government programs for the promotion of agricultural production and state funds attracted by loans cannot be involved in the project.
