The first participants of the organized employment program from Uzbekistan in Belarus complained about the quality of living conditions and the level of wages. Workers from the Andzhan region, who arrived in the Vitebsk region, published a video appeal asking for help to return to Uzbekistan.

Discrepancy between promises and reality

As part of a pilot project, 255 residents from the Andzhan region were recently sent to Belarus. Before leaving, they were promised official employment, stable pay, decent living conditions, and social guarantees. However, after arriving, some workers stated that the actual conditions do not match these promises.

In videos posted on social networks, they showed the dormitory where they live, noting that its condition was worse than expected. According to the workers, their monthly earnings are about 500 US dollars, while they have to cover food and daily living expenses themselves. After deducting mandatory expenses, they are left with approximately 200 US dollars, which makes further work in Belarus economically unviable.

Appeal to authorities and agency's reaction

In their video appeal, the workers addressed the governor of the Andzhan region, Shukhrat Abdurakhmanov, asking for help to return to Uzbekistan. The Migration Agency informed journalists that this situation is under review. Representatives of the agency and officials from the Andzhan regional administration present in Belarus are studying the relationship between employers and migrant workers.

The agency clarified that the workers were sent by the Andzhan regional administration as part of a pilot project. It also stated that if an employer fails to meet the terms of the employment contract, including salary payments, the workers will be offered a job with another employer. The agency expects the problem to be resolved by the end of the day.

Employment prospects in Belarus

Furthermore, the Migration Agency mentioned that Uzbek investors are opening farms in Belarus, where employment opportunities for Uzbek citizens are being considered. According to signed contracts, the average monthly salary at these enterprises should be between 900 and 1000 US dollars, with a maximum of 1200 US dollars. It was previously reported that around 5000 Uzbek citizens are planned to be sent to Belarus under the organized employment program.
