The Russian labor market in the new reality: features and trends

The assessment of the state of the labor market is traditionally considered from the standpoint of ensuring the economic security of the state. Current trends in the Russian labor market, characterized by a significantly increased demand for personnel in all sectors of the economy, limited labor supply, and record-low unemployment, are unique on the one hand and pose a challenge to the development of the economy as a whole on the other. The article presents the dynamics of the main indicators of the labor market and the factors that caused them, the structural deformation of the market in the context of the digital transformation of the economy, the prospects for the impact of the demographic situation and the underutilization of labor on the state of the labor market. This allowed us to formulate certain areas of influence of the state policy of regulating the labor market.
