Implementation of this year’s youth employment promotion program “My First Salary” will be implemented through four phases. The National Employment Service announced a Public Call for Implementation.
Four phases of program implementation
The first phase of implementation is intended for employers, who will be able to apply for participation in the program from August 22 to September 22, 2022, on the website www.mojaprvaplata.gov.rs.
Through the second phase, unemployed people who want to participate in the program can apply from October 3 to October 31, 2022, on the aforementioned website.
The third phase of the program is the selection of candidates by the employer. Employers will be able to carry out the selection process of registered candidates from the very beginning of their registration. Employers from the private sector will make the final selection of candidates from November 1 to November 15, and those from the public sector will do it from November 16 to November 30, 2022. The final selection of candidates will be published on the website www.mojaprvaplata.gov.rs within 15 days.
The last phase of the program entails the signing of a tripartite contract between the National Employment Service, the employer and the selected candidate. The start of the implementation of the program is within 15 days from the formation of the list of advertised employers and approved candidates.
The program is planned to involve 10,000 young people
This year, it is planned to include 10,000 young people up to the age of 30, who have at least secondary education and no work experience, in the “My First Salary” program. The program will be implemented by the employer and will last nine months, with no employment relationship established.
The National Employment Service will pay a monthly compensation of RSD 25,000 to young people with secondary education, and RSD 30,000 to those with higher education.
The goal of the program is to create opportunities for young people who do not have work experience to do specific internships with employers and thus acquire knowledge, skills and competencies for work.
