The essence of social protection is not only to ensure the political, social and economic rights of citizens but also in the psychological component of personality. It is necessary to neutralize the sources of insecurity, which have a downward effect on the level and quality of life, namely to create high-paying jobs; improve the social security and social assistance, to effectively fight against corruption and crime, to improve social and economic stability.
