Khusnullin called North Korea's labor market "very interesting"

One tiler from North Korea can replace two Russian workers of the same specialty, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin said in an interview with RBC. He called the North Korean market "very interesting"

Construction workers from North Korea are more productive than Russian ones, Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin said in an interview with RBC. He called North Korea's labor market "very interesting."

The official cited Korean tilers as an example, who work 2.5 times faster than Russian ones. “It turns out that he alone replaces two or two and a half Russian tilers. This is a fact,” Khusnullin assured. According to him, historically, RUSSIA has always focused on the CIS countries when attracting labor resources and did not consider more distant markets. “They [North Koreans], of course, are very good workers, but they are very closed,” the Deputy Prime Minister specified.

Earlier, the HEAD of the DPR, Denis Pushilin, instructed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the republic to establish diplomatic relations with the DPRK, including to attract builders. North Korea, along with Russia and Syria, recognized the independence of the DPR. However, in 2017, the UN adopted a resolution according to which all UN member countries must repatriate North Korean citizens working for them and not hire them in the future. The sanctions are due to the fact that, according to the laws of the DPRK, North Koreans are required to pay up to 70% of their salaries to the state. The UN resolution notes that the North Korean authorities spend these revenues on programs to create nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles.

Khusnullin, in an interview with RBC, also said that the Russian market lost some of the migrants during the CORONAVIRUS pandemic, when workers from the CIS chose the United Arab Emirates, Turkey and Europe instead of Russia. “We have not fully recovered these losses of migrants,” he admitted.

The Vice Prime Minister noted that a center has been established in Uzbekistan to attract labor migrants. “We can try to take local [Russians], it will be more expensive, but in the end, the consumer pays for everything. In the end, all this will fall into the cost of construction, into the cost of operation. It will all be more expensive, ”concluded the official.

When restrictions on entry into Russia were introduced in 2020 due to the covid-19 pandemic, a labor shortage began in construction and other sectors of the economy, which continued throughout 2021. In April, in an interview with RBC, Khusnullin said that before the announcement of sanctions in February 2022, the shortage of builders was about 1 million people. In June, Deputy Minister of Construction and Housing and Public Utilities Nikita Stasishin said that construction companies no longer record a shortage of personnel. This, according to him, was influenced, among other things, by the strengthening of the ruble, which led to "objectively decent wages for workers."
