YEREVAN, AUGUST 15, NOYAN TAPAN. The draft to the "Guidebook for Social
Servicemen’s House Visits" was worked out for specialists engaged in
social work in Armenia. Social servicemen’s rights and obligations,
rules of professional ethics are particularly presented in it. The
seminar on the theme "The Guidebook for Social Servicemen’s House
Visits and Ethics Rules" organized on August 15 was dedicated to
discussion of the draft guidebook. As Artsvik Minasian, the RA Deputy
Minister of Labour and Social Issues mentioned, one of the important
components of the social security of inhabitation is improvement
of the social servicemen’s institute. According to him, the social
serviceman was formed in Armenia as a profession during the recent
years. In A.Minasian’s opinion, development of professional abilities
and skills as well as theoretical knowledge are important preconditions
for improvement of that institute.

Both territorial agencies on social service and numerous public
organizations are today engaged in social work in the republic. In
A.Minasian’s words, arising of the social-economic state of Armenia,
demands presented to a social serviceman are also changed during a
period of time.
