Around 430 thousand new jobs will be established in Kazakhstan in 2020. This was announced at an expanded meeting of the Government by the Prime Minister Askar Mamin.
“One of the most important priorities of the Government’s work is the creation of productive jobs. In 2020, 430 thousand new jobs will be created in all sectors of the economy, including those with high productivity,” Mamin said.
According to him, this will be facilitated by the implementation of investment projects that involve a transition to a new technological level in the organization of the production of goods and services, which will lead to an increase in labor productivity up to 8.2 million tenge per person (in 2019 - 7.4 million tenge per person). "The main source will be the service sector, primarily tourism, trade and construction, as well as sectors of the real sector, including manufacturing and agriculture," Mamin concluded.
