In the Tula region updated the regional state program to promote employment

The government of the Tula region approved changes to the state program “Promoting employment of the population of the Tula region”. The corresponding resolution was signed on November 12, 2026 and enters into force on the date of official publication.

The changes are as follows: the program has been linked to the national development goals of Russia until 2030 and for the future until 2036 – primarily to the goals of “sustainable and dynamic economy” and “preservation of the population, strengthening the health and well-being of people, supporting the family”, approved by presidential decree No. 309. The document has a new section on the relationship with federal programs and the national project “Personnel”.

The determining indicator of the program was the level of registered unemployment. By 2030, it should not exceed 1%.

The tasks have been seriously updated, they include the formation of a forecast of the needs of the regional economy in personnel, improving skills and obtaining new skills of citizens, developing employment infrastructure with digital and platform solutions, as well as creating conditions for employers to attract labor resources from other regions.

The procedure for the participation of adolescents in employment has been changed: minors from 14 to 18 years old in a socially dangerous situation or a difficult life situation received the priority right to participate in events, including orphans, children from large and low-income families, disabled children and family members of SVO participants.

The document also specified the name of the relevant department – now the Ministry of Labor of the Tula region – and updated the composition of the program’s governing council, which will be headed by the deputy chairman of the regional government.

A separate block in the program includes occupational safety measures: the region will report a decrease in the number of serious and fatal accidents at work relative to the base year.

We will remind, as previously wrote “MK in Tula”, in October of this year, there were clarifications on how pensioners of Tula issue additional payments, care and a ticket.
