Secondly, private employment agencies will be given the opportunity to provide certain types of services or package services, including, for example, training and employment, or vocational guidance.

Thirdly, the updating of standards and the introduction of economically viable services that are attractive for the private sector will be provided.

The fourth change envisages a gradual transformation of state employment centers. At the same time employment centers from state institutions will be transferred to the form of enterprises on the right of economic management. The organizational and legal form will be determined by local executive bodies independently.

According to the developers, the proposed changes will allow to expand labor market institutions that provide services to promote employment, ensure their accessibility to citizens and improve quality through competition.
