Such provisions of the draft law as the legal and social protection of civil servants, a unified wage system, the procedure for rewards and penalties, social security, as well as legal guarantees for compliance with labor laws were discussed, and a number of proposals of deputies on these issues were considered reasonable.
At the roundtable, deputies, experts and scientists made a number of proposals and recommendations for further improvement and finalization of the draft law.
In conclusion, it was decided to once again consider the proposals at a meeting of the Working Group established to prepare the draft law for the second reading.
