According to Ergeshov, in 2025, 19,400 people were employed.
However, he also pointed out the existing problem with unscrupulous senders, who negatively affect the reputation of legal agencies.
"Some of them create the impression that all agencies are involved in fraud and deception, seeking only to profit from citizens. But we cannot generalize — almost 99 percent of agencies have been operating honestly for many years," he noted.
It is worth adding that last week, the Department of Internal Affairs conducted inspections of employment agencies in Bishkek and identified a number of violations. Some of them lacked the necessary licenses to send citizens abroad. As a result, the activities of five agencies were temporarily suspended, and the companies received fines.
