UNEMPLOYED TO BE RETRAINED OR GET NEW PROFESSION
Ara Petrosian, RA Deputy Labor and Social Security
Minister, represented the details of some government
decisions concerning the labor sphere. In particular,
he dwelt on the some issues of the unemployed people.
Petrosian said that it is envisaged that a program
aimed to re-training of unemployed people will be
implemented. They will receive second specialization,
including crafts and professions that are required in
the employment market. The program is financed by the
state budget allocations, sources of the social fund
and the donations of various donor organizations.
According to the program, the re-training courses may
last 3-6 months.
By another decision, the period after an individual
became a disabled person and is not capable of working
will be considered as seniority. RA Government also
approved the decision, according to which ill people
will receive sanatorium treatment benefits. This group
of people includes patients with tuberculosis, with
post-infarct complications, as well as post operation
treatment of stomach and duodenum complications.

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
