"One million specialists will come to Russia": migrants from India and North Korea will be brought to Sverdlovsk Region
Today at 16:13, Sverdlovsk Region will address the workforce shortage problem through migrants. But not from Central Asia, instead from India, Sri Lanka, and North Korea. This was stated by Andrey Besedin, head of the Ural Chamber of Commerce and Industry (UCCI).
According to him, industrial enterprises plan to increase production volumes. However, there is a lack of staff in the region. Some have gone to join the special military operation, and the youth are not eager to work in factories "due to an ideological mistake made in the country."
— An agreement has been reached with India. As I heard from my Indian colleagues, by the end of the year, one million specialists from India will arrive in Russia, including Sverdlovsk Region, — quoted Besedin by EAN.
There are also plans to bring workers from Sri Lanka and North Korea.
— We do not yet have experience working with these countries, but our enterprises are very interested in partnership, meaning they will organize everything necessary. This is a new level of international cooperation in the labor sector, but we have certain hopes connected to it, — the head of UCCI noted.
It was previously reported that Sverdlovsk factories are experiencing a severe staff shortage.
