Direct job opportunities for SL skilled migrant workers in Russia

The Sri Lankan Embassy in Moscow is pleased to have initiated direct employment opportunities for Sri Lankan skilled migrant workers in the Russian Federation for the first time in history, in collaboration with the Sri Lanka Foreign Employment Agency (SLFEA), a fully owned state organization in Sri Lanka.

Under this initiative, the first group consisting of 58 seamstresses arrived in the Russian Federation on August 2, to be employed at two renowned textile manufacturing plants located in the Nizhny Novgorod region.

The Embassy facilitated the employers to enter into agreements with the Sri Lanka Foreign Employment Agency to recruit these 58 seamstresses without involvement of intermediate agencies.

Discussions are underway in a progressive manner with the regional government authorities in Nizhny Novgorod to enable 700 more employment opportunities for Sri Lankan skilled seamstresses. The Embassy in liaison with relevant authorities is in the process of devising a mechanism to create more employment opportunities for Sri Lankan skilled migrant workers in the Russian Federation and other countries of accreditation, under a number of technical categories.
