The COVID-19 crisis required citizens to be on self-isolation in order to prevent spreading of the virus. Many citizens lost the jobs and had difficulties to access PES servies.
success:
Russian Government introduced new format of digital registration as unemployed person through special job search web-site “Rabota v Rossii” and state web-site on state services. No additional papers were required – solely application and the CV. As a result, out of 9,1 mln citizens who applied to PES, 7,2 mln persons applied via digital way.
context:
The COVID-19 pandemic burst out in the beginning of 2020 required prompt response from the states to address acute unemployment crisis. Those CIS states who had digital public employment services (Russian Federation) were able to provide direct unemployment benefits to citizens via digital PES services
