Summary/Abstract: In the path of development of the archives in the Republic of Macedonia the service takes a significant role, by practicing its activities and jurisdictions on field on behalf of the sector for inspection surveillance and preservation of the archive material held by the owners. Achieving their duties many of the law acts have been changed on behalf of the employees of the service and the sector in the past. in the minutes of the organizational structure and placement names were adopted to changes by the composition or the ways of work, but the goal more or less was always intact. the main goal was the maximal preservation and protection of the documentation materials made by the owners, or that the same materials are handled by the state archive under their jurisdiction. of course there was a lot of misguidance and anomalies through the years, but the employees in the sector have a lot of achievements to brag about because behind they have thousands of archive funds and gave expert advice and aid to the employees in the archives. The challenge of the sector also includes the new law for inspection surveillance which changes the approach of the inspection services and requires continuity of the preservation and expert consulting. The rejuvenation of the work force, the hard evaluation of their duties, changing the relation with the field inspectors, selection of the most skilled workers which can contribute in fulfilling their work tasks is a very significant change. The persons that will be chosen for the inspector job positions should be aware of the consequences by accepting or rejecting it (if the freedom of choice is given), the task to get or not the license of inspector is not an easy task if you lose the status of employment.
