According to the economic correspondent of Fars News Agency, Iran is among the young countries and every year with a huge number of graduates التحصیلان The university is facing new entrances to the labor market, so creating new employment opportunities, protecting existing employment, and solving labor market problems are important concerns of governments.

‌In the last 2 years a large population has been imposed due to restrictions Corona Economic activities were temporarily excluded from the labor market and are waiting to return to this market later this year and next, so they must be prepared in advance.

Labor market in 1399 due to the outbreak of the disease coronavirus, Had special conditions and was directly affected by it. This year, about 1.5 million people have decreased from the active population, about 2 million people have been added to the inactive population, and about 1 million people from the working population of the country have been decomposed.

Despite the improvement of economic conditions from the second half of 1399 and the first half of 1400 and the reduction of restrictions Corona For economic activities, the figures of the active and employed population of the country are still far from the performance of 1398.

Official statistics of labor market developments show that despite money laundering and the allocation of financial resources from the public budget, the National Development Fund, ‌ banks and other sectors in 1999, net employment was at its worst in a decade and even after The revolution came, in 1999, due to mismanagement, the spread coronavirus And the bad economic situation lost more than a million existing jobs.

This happened at a time when the Rouhani government and Mohammad Baqer Nobakht, the head of the Program and Budget Organization, were chanting the slogan of creating one million jobs a year, but the economic indicators were not favorable in any of the sectors. At its best, net employment reached 430,000 in 1998.

A study of spring, summer and autumn statistics shows a gradual improvement in labor market indicators, so that the net employment in the fall was 122 thousand people. The unemployed population also decreased and from 2 million 890 thousand people in 1998 to 2 1,440,000 people arrived in the fall of 1400.

Also part of the inactivation of the population aged 15 and over due to the epidemic coronavirus have been.

* Changing the path of job creation in the main government

Recognizing the fact that sustainable employment is impossible without creating a link between economic growth and the labor market, and having only limited effects, the 13th government has set a goal of achieving 8% growth in the 1401 budget bill. Requires 4.48% growth in employment.

In the budget bill of 1401 to achieve the goals of the labor market, the strategy of promoting employment based on productivity and effective use of available resources for employment is considered.

Paragraph A of Note 18 of the budget bill focuses on the establishment of the Progress and Justice Fund to support the improvement of economic growth through programs to increase production and create and stabilize employment. The benefit of the facility or grant shall be used to support the programs of the executive apparatus. The authority for approving the plans (projects) subject to paragraph A of Note 18 to supervise their proper implementation is the Provincial Planning and Development Council.

1- Protecting existing employment and businesses and activating damaged enterprises coronavirusAt the top of economic policy priorities

2- Strengthening the culture of work and entrepreneurship, wealth creation and productive employment through political, institutional and educational interventions

3- Entrepreneurship development with the approach of starting a business and developing and prospering the existing business

According to Fars, in the budget of 1400, because the Rouhani government’s program and budget organization did not perform accurately and successfully in the discussion of allocating resources for employment, the members of parliament decided to delegate this mission to the Ministry of Economy. Due to the change of government, addressing this rule of law began with a delay, so that during Farhad’s ministry دژپسند Stopped completely.

In this regard, سیداحسان خاندوزی The Minister of Economy of the 13th government presented a report on the implementation of Note 18 of the Budget Law and said: One of the remaining tasks of the 1400 budget was to allocate employment facilities, which was in the form of Note 18 of the 1400 budget, and the allocation of these facilities was delayed; , With the cooperation of the executive bodies, provincial officials and the banking network, fortunately, about 15,000 billion tomans were allocated from the budget related to Note 18 and paragraph A, which was about employment, and the executive bodies also determined their job creation plans.

He emphasized: the banks are the payers of these facilities and considering that they act as levers, that is, they add two to three times the budget that the government has allocated for employment, so with this action, the amount Much higher will be allocated for employment

According to Fars, based on economics, creating new and sustainable job opportunities depends on economic growth in three sectors.گانه Industry, agriculture, and services, and island programs outside of this goal lead to a diversion of resources. National and regional planning next year aims to create more than one million jobs and for this purpose offered up to 160 thousand billion tomans of credit.

Expecting a change in the current trend is considered an important factor in the market and among businesses, which, if accompanied by economic stability and the implementation of the policy of building one million housing, will definitely improve the employment process of job seekers.
