According to the draft document:

• starting from the second year of study, students of higher educational institutions are allowed to work in their free time in their specialty on the basis of a certificate issued by the head of a higher educational institution;
• when hiring students undergoing paid work experience and paid internship, a certificate is not required;
• students are allowed to work in their specialty on the basis of a certificate only while studying at a higher educational institution.

The Ministry of Higher Education, Science and Innovations is entrusted with the task of developing and approving the procedure for issuing a certificate to students, giving them the right to work in their specialty, providing for:

• a list of areas of education for which a certificate is issued;
• the course starting from which certificates are issued in the areas of study;
• circumstances taken into account when issuing a certificate.

The Ministry of Employment and Poverty Reduction is invited to make appropriate changes to labor regulations.
