The Federation of Trade Unions of Belarus (FTUB) has updated its mentorship regulations. The document recommends including in the system those who have returned to work after a long break, are mastering a related profession, or are newly recruited. New forms of support for mentors have been introduced: adding an entry about their status to their job description, which, according to the collective agreement, will guarantee incentive payments.

The regulations describe the roles - from the head of the structural unit to the authorized employee responsible for organizing mentorship and the stages - from signing an agreement with the mentee to summarizing the results. The cooperation period has been optimized and is now up to 6 months.

“The main goal of mentorship remains unchanged: the adaptation of the worker to the profession and the team, and fostering their responsible attitude towards work,” emphasized Dmitry Alekseychik, Head of the Main Department for Social Partnership and Labor Relations of the FTUB. “The trade unions have vast experience, and after analyzing recent practices, we have proposed a number of innovations.”
