An employee of Uralmashzavod is now on average forty-five years old, the enterprise’s HR Director Natalya Babilurova announced at Sverdlovsk Region Women’s Parliament Council meeting in Yekaterinburg.


According to Ms Babilurova, only a thousand workers haven’t reached the age of thirty-five yet, all of which is explained by the workforce shortage.


By 2012, the median age of Uralmashzavod’s employees is expected to go down to forty, the spokesperson for Sverdlovsk Region Legislative Assembly reports.
