The government is taking measures to support technical specialists within the framework of the Year of Working Professions, initiated by the Head of State. 

On the instructions of Prime Minister Olzhas Bektenov, the Family Bank announced the launch of a new program "Nauryz Worker" , and the issue of providing housing for working specialists has been resolved. 

The program covers employees in the industry, energy, transport, agriculture and water resources sectors. 

This year, it is planned to provide 2,440 loans worth 72 billion tenge to representatives of working professions within the framework of the "Nauryz Worker" program. 

The start of accepting applications is scheduled for March 17, 2025. "Nauryz Worker" will be part of the already well-known "Nauryz" housing program.

According to the terms of the program, a loan will be provided at a rate of 7% for socially vulnerable categories of citizens (from 7.1% to 9.6% of the GST) and 9% for all other categories (from 9.4% to 13%). The initial payment starts from 10% for the purchase of primary housing with clean finishing, and from 20% for the purchase of primary housing without finishing and housing on the secondary market. The maximum loan amount is 30 million tenge for regions, 36 million tenge for Astana and Almaty.

In addition to the “Nauryz Worker” program, Otbasy Bank will also work with domestic enterprises within the framework of a “corporate” product, which means that enterprises will allocate funds for lending to their employees. 

“Our President declared 2025 the Year of Working Professions.  Miners, metallurgists, masons, electricians, foundries perform heavy work. Owners of these and many other professions provide us with our basic needs. Care for such specialists is equal to care for the good of the entire society. Many of them work in difficult conditions. Therefore, solving their housing problems will help compensate for difficult working conditions,” said Lyazzat Ibragimova, Chairman of the Board of Otbasy Bank JSC.
