Approved by the resolution of the Supreme State Council of the Union State of December 26, 2001 No. 7

Conceptual bases and projections of social development of the Union State till 2005 (social and labor aspect)

I. Starting positions

Formation of the Union State creates premises for development of the single Concept of social development.

According to article 2 of the Agreement on creation of the Union State of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus one of main objectives of the Union State is "carrying out the approved social policy directed to creation of the conditions providing worthy life and free development of the person". Article 31 of the Agreement provides that "in the Union State the unified labor law, the legislation in the field of social protection of the population, provision of pensions is effective".

Development of the single concept of social development of the uniting states not only is possible, but also is necessary:

first, in case of all distinctions of Belarus and Russia, these states solve the same problems, have the coincident purposes and priorities in the development;

secondly, combination of efforts - indispensable condition of more successful solution of common problems of the social and labor sphere that is important indicator of viability of the Union State.

The single Concept of social development represents system of mutually agreed views of common goals and priorities of social development, way and mechanisms of their practical implementation in the conditions of deepening of the interstate relations within the Union State.

As a result of gap of earlier existing economic bonds of Belarus and Russia extensive economic damage which caused long-term output gap is caused. Suspension of the existing negative tendencies is inseparable from establishing close interaction between two states. The directions of this interaction are predetermined by the national strategy which are available for their realization by resources, political will of heads of both states to forming of new system of interstate cooperation on the basis of partnership, respect of sovereignty and accounting of national interests.

In this regard forming of single social and economic space within development of the Union State of Belarus and Russia is the most important priority of foreign and domestic policy of both countries.

Availability of common goals and priorities of development of the social and labor sphere, their essence are predetermined constitutionally: the uniting countries proclaimed themselves the social states (article 7 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation and article 1 of the Constitution of the Republic of Belarus).

Socialization of the state is process of search of mechanisms of approval of interests of most of his members, harmonizations of free competition in the market and social balance in society, the rights of the personality and the civil responsibility. The balance is reached through many-sided activities of the modern social state. In its basis - growth of national income and providing worthy level of living to all segments of the population; the active labor market policy directed to achievement of effective employment; protection of the social and labor rights of workers; social insurance, family support and motherhood, aged, youth; development available to all education, health care, culture.

It is vital both for Belarus, and for Russia that development of the developed social and economic relations proceeded in single bed of creation of the model of the Union State which is based on market regulated economy with system of efficient incentives of mobilization of economic activity of able-bodied population, social guarantees for all citizens, the public assistance to persons in need (needy).

The purposes of the Union State in the social and labor sphere can be determined in high-quality and quantitative forms. In the first case it is about priorities and the directions of development, the mechanism of their realization, in the second - about the balanced system of forecast indicators. Within development of conceptual bases and projections of social development of the Union State the accent is made on the high-quality party.

These conceptual the basics should be covered as the set reference point on development of the Section of the general Concept of social and economic development of the Union State.
