Establishment and development of Municipal Social Enterprise “Green Systems” in Pavlikeni Municipality

The project covers activities to set up and operate a social enterprise providing employment opportunities and professional integration into it for people with disabilities and other representatives of groups at risk, as an important prerequisite for reducing poverty and the risk of social exclusion. Providing employment to vulnerable social groups living on the territory of the municipality will also lead to the sustainability of the social policy measures implemented by the municipality. The implementation of the intervention will have a positive impact both in improving the quality of life of people starting work and in reducing the burden on the social assistance system. The municipality of Pavlikeni will set up a new social enterprise which will cover activities to maintain the green system of the municipality, namely: parks, green areas, gardens, sidewalks and road banquets. It is envisaged to purchase equipment to ensure the optimal running of the workflow. The company will be managed by a director, in its composition an accountant will be appointed, who will be a representative of the target groups. The project will cover 7 people from the target groups to receive support for social and labour integration in the field of social economy. It is envisaged to appoint 6 persons to the position of landscaping worker and 1 accountant. They will be assigned to employment contracts and will be insured under the legislation in force for a period of 12 months.
