MEASURES FOR CHILD SAFETY HAVE BEEN STRENGTHENED IN SHYMKENT 05.07.2025
In Shymkent, comprehensive preventive work is being carried out to prevent children from accidentally falling from the windows of multi-storey buildings. This year, 3 such incidents have been recorded so far: 2 children died and 1 child was injured. Last year, there were 4 incidents during this period (3 injuries, 1 fatality). In 2024, a total of 8 incidents were recorded, including 1 child died and 7 children were injured. Experts say that children under the age of 7 cannot fully appreciate the dangers of having a window open or covered with a mosquito net. The main cause of accidents is insufficient supervision by adults, especially when entrusting a child to older children or elderly relatives. In order to raise public awareness, 4 speeches were organized on local and national television channels, and 22 radio broadcasts were broadcast. In addition, a special video clip is being prepared. Since the beginning of the year, 159 house inspections have been conducted in crowded places and among residents of multi-story buildings, covering more than 2,650 people. 22 meetings have been held and more than 1,060 leaflets have been distributed. Specific recommendations were given at these meetings to prevent children from falling out of windows. In addition, explanatory work is being carried out regularly on social networks (WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram), and the "5 Steps" memo developed by the Department is being sent to chat rooms of parents and home committees, along with district employees. Together with local executive bodies, 103 safety blockers have been installed on the windows of 62 houses since the beginning of the year. On June 26, an extraordinary meeting of the Commission for the Prevention and Elimination of Emergency Situations was held on the issue of "Measures to Prevent Children from Falling Out of Windows." Problematic issues were considered and instructions were given to strengthen the safety of children. According to the legislation, ensuring the safety of the child is the direct responsibility of the parents. Article 127 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Republic of Kazakhstan provides for administrative punishment for failure to fulfill these obligations. Also, Articles 119 and 141 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan provide for criminal liability for failure to fulfill relevant obligations in cases where the life and health of the child are at risk. The Shymkent City Emergency Department recommends that residents not leave children unattended, install special locks on windows, and observe all safety measures. This was announced today at a briefing held at the information platform of the Regional Communications Service of Shymkent by the Head of the Emergency Situations Prevention Department of the Shymkent City Emergency Situations Department, Civil Defense Colonel - Makhmudov Irismat Bakhtiyarovich.

T.Ospankulov informed about the improvement of the work of the medical and social expertise service 04.07.2025
Tolegen Ospankulov, Chairman of the Committee for Regulation and Control in the Field of Social Protection of the Population of the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Republic of Kazakhstan, spoke at a briefing in the Central Communications Service under the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan about the current changes in the medical and social expertise service and the measures taken to improve the quality of services provided.⠀According to him, the Ministry of Labor is currently carrying out large-scale work to transform approaches to disability identification.⠀"At the center of this reform is the introduction of a proactive correspondence format for the ITU. The point is to make the process of assigning a disability group as easy as possible for citizens – to make it accessible, convenient, expeditious, and most importantly, objective and fair," Tolegen Ospankulov emphasized.⠀The new format allows citizens not to undergo an in-person examination for certain diagnoses (30 nosological forms), provided there is complete and reliable medical information transmitted digitally by a medical organization.⠀The correspondence format is being implemented not only as part of digitalization, but also as a response to systemic problems in the ITU service, such as staff shortages in remote regions, high expert workload and the need to reduce bureaucratic barriers. It allows you to redistribute the workload between regions through the work of extraterritorial experts.⠀"The reform is aimed at increasing public confidence in the ITU service and the social protection system as a whole, reducing corruption risks and creating a truly customer–oriented model for disability," the speaker added.⠀By the end of 2024, the share of disability group assignment services provided in a proactive correspondence format amounted to 37.4% (96.9 thousand applications), with a target of 35%. As of July 1, 2025, this figure reached 39.3% (51.8 thousand applications).⠀Read more on the website at the link in the profile header.https://www.youtube.com/live/qA0LlAgmaQs?si=_TeaRXbv9STMswQRSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/enbek-atyrau/press/news/details/1030030?lang=kk
