The HALO Trust British company has been conducting demining operations in Artsakh since 2000. In an interview with "Artsakhpress", Project coordinator of the company Ash Boddy said that every year there were more than 100 workers, but this year the number of employees has reached to 210.

HALO Trust also has women-sappers.

"The first group was established in 2015 from Kareghah village of Kashatagh region. Now there are three such groups where the number of women dominates, "he said.

Answering to the question how they take employees, Bodin said that a 5-week probation period is required to work at  HALO Trust. The first four weeks includes theory and practice of demining, and the fifth week-the first medical aid.

After each stage, the participants pass an exam after which they decide whether the work is expedient or not.
