Governor Alexander Burkov: Thanks to the national project, labor productivity in the region increased by 10%

Today, on July 22, a solemn ceremony of summing up the results of the regional stage of the competition "Best Mentoring Practices - 2022" took place at the site of the regional Congress Hall.

Participating companies of the national Labor Productivity project took part in the regional stage of the competition. This year, 16 applications have been submitted from 13 enterprises.

Alexander Burkov, Governor of the Omsk Region, addressed the participants of the competition with a welcoming speech. He noted that leading enterprises of the regional economy had joined the work on the implementation of the Labor Productivity project.  

"Since 2020, the national Labor Productivity project has been implemented in the Omsk Region. This project was initiated by President Vladimir Putin. To date, we have 39 enterprises — leaders of the regional economy — involved in its implementation. And we have achieved good results. Thanks to the national project, labor productivity in the region increased by 10%, doubling production output," the head of the region emphasized.  

He thanked the Federal Competence Center for its difficult work with enterprises of different industries with different management systems: "You are really forcing our managers to take a fresh look at the production process and reduce losses. This is very important for our economy today," Alexander Burkov is convinced.  

According to him, the institute of mentoring was widespread in the Soviet years, and then it proved its worth. Thanks to the national project, it is being revived today. Alexander Burkov noted that the competition makes it possible to identify and replicate best practices in mentoring. He said that last year two Omsk enterprises with their practices were among the best at the federal level.: NPO Mir took the first place, Omsk Scientific Research Institute of Instrument Engineering – the second.  

The governor called on the heads of Omsk enterprises that have not yet participated in the national project to join it and participate in a mentoring competition.  

"Participate in a mentoring competition with your teams. This is really a step forward, a step into the future," Alexander Burkov said.

Vladimir Gusarov, Head of the Department for Macro-Region No. 1 of the Federal Center for Labor Productivity Competencies, noted that the Omsk Region fulfills all the goals of the national project. The Federal competence Center has established partnerships with specialists and enterprises of the Omsk region.  

"Enterprises that are engaged in mentoring and work with young people have a great prospect. Their work is most effective in terms of staff development. The main indicator of the effectiveness of the Omsk region is that two enterprises took first and second place at the federal level," Vladimir Gusarov said.

The competition "Best Mentoring Practices in the Omsk Region" is aimed at encouraging and replicating the best mentoring models and practical experience in using lean technologies to improve labor productivity. The competition committee evaluated the participants according to the following criteria: the essence of the project, the key idea, the methods and tools used, the uniqueness of the practice, the possibility of its replication and scaling. This year, the certificates of the participants of the Competition "Best mentoring practices in the Omsk region" in 2022 were received: JSC Omsk Airport, JSC Omskoblvodoprovod, LLC Production Association Velta, LLC Siberian Bakery Plant, LLC Planeta-Center, CJSC Omsk Plant of Innovative Technologies.
