Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak made a working visit to the Republic of North Ossetia-Alania.
The Deputy Prime Minister held a bilateral meeting with the head of the region, Sergei Menyailo, to discuss the region's socio-economic development.
As part of his working visit, Alexander Novak visited the Republican Water Utility, where he inspected the facility's grounds, updated production facilities, and its fleet of specialized equipment, which numbers over 160 units. He also spoke with employees and learned in detail about the work of its divisions.
The Deputy Prime Minister also assessed the work of the Mamison ski resort and held a meeting there dedicated to increasing labor productivity in the country's tourism industry.
A pilot program to improve labor productivity in the Russian tourism sector was presented at a meeting attended by the heads of the North Caucasus regions, representatives of the Ministry of Economic Development, industry agencies, and the management of Kavkaz.RF. The program will be implemented by the industry competence center (ICC) for tourism established within Kavkaz.RF.
"The President has set an ambitious goal of increasing the country's labor productivity growth rate. Given the labor shortage, this is a key factor in improving efficiency and reallocating labor to high-productivity sectors. Tourism has significant potential for such a leap," emphasized Alexander Novak.
He noted that the proposed draft program for increasing labor productivity will become a practical tool for achieving this goal once approved. "The draft prepared by the Ministry of Economic Development will soon be reviewed by the Government. Our shared goal for the next six years is to implement modern technologies and best practices in companies to guarantee improved service quality for Russian and foreign tourists," added Alexander Novak.
One mechanism for improving operational efficiency is packaged solutions—developed algorithms for changing the most routine and critical processes in the industry. Another mechanism is targeted support for lagging industries. Here, experts will primarily focus on sanatoriums and amusement parks, where, according to research, labor productivity is lowest and ready-made solutions are lacking due to the specific characteristics of each facility. Implementation of the entire program's set of measures will increase labor productivity by 28.6% by 2030 compared to 2023 levels.
