ABSTRACT

The article presents data from two panel mass questionnaire surveys of 1st and 4th year undergraduate students conducted in monitoring mode at the University of Tyumen in 2022–2023. Using the theoretical provisions of the sociology of life, a comparative analysis of the characteristics of students' expectations regarding their future professional, career and status positions in the regional labor market is given. The importance of taking into account the temporal parameters of a student's movement along his personal educational trajectory, differentiating work attitudes and expectations for choosing and building career trajectories between first-year and final-year students of the university, is emphasized. Final-year students have a noticeably lower level of both identification with their future profession and the long-term perspective of their professional trajectory within the framework of professional education received at the university, while dealing with a higher level of anxiety about their professional future and career. Despite the fact that final-year students are less likely than first-year students to express a desire for international migration, every third young man and student majoring in natural sciences declares such intentions. At the same time, stable characteristics of students' life have been found, which are inherent in both 1st- and 4th-year students. These include ideas about an ideal career and status expectations; preference for some form of employment and work schedule; commitment to material values. The results of the conducted research can be used to adjust regional and intra-organizational social policy in order to increase the attractiveness of organizations and enterprises of the Tyumen region for the possible employment of young specialists with higher.

ABSTRACT

Based on a secondary analysis of the combined data set obtained through of the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS-HSE) of Russians between 1994 and 2022, the article reveals the dynamics and details pertaining to the ratio of fear levels from losing a job and employment confidence in the event of dismissal in the working population of Russia. According to the results of the analysis, the fear of job loss appears to be constructive when combined with employment confidence in the event of dismissal and destructive when this confidence is absent. Applying the concept of the resource-based view, the author of the article studies the role of biological, vocational, educational, territorial, industrial, economic and behavioral groups of workers’ resources in increasing the level of confidence in employment. It was revealed that the possession of these resources is most inherent in young men (under 35 years of age) who have good health and live in megacities or regional centers. Among the production, economic and behavioral resources, employment in private enterprises and the availability of a second job make the greatest contribution to the growth of employment confidence. Other important resources include unreported employment and labor mobility. The results of a regression analysis of the impact of all resource groups on the level of employment confidence showed that, regardless of the high level of qualification among specialists (professionals) or skilled workers, the availability of a second job makes the greatest contribution. In general, the analysis suggests that an increase in employment confidence in the labor market in the event of dismissal is more a consequence of the experience of an additional paid work, a change of a job or a profession, than the emotional and psychological state of the individual, his or her education level and professional status.

ABSTRACT

This article analyzes changes in the level of employment and time spent by Russians working in personal subsidiary plots and other individual farms, non-profit partnerships in 1994–2021. The analysis is based on data from the Russian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey of the Higher School of Economics (RLMS-HSE). The object of the study is employment and duration of working hours in personal subsidiary pots and other individual farms, non-profit partnerships. The subject of the study is the dynamics of employment and duration of working hours in personal subsidiary plots. The main hypothesis of the study which was confirmed is that one of the results of economic transformations in the post-Soviet period was a reduction in the duration of working hours of city dwellers and villagers in personal subsidiary plots. The study revealed a significant reduction in the duration of working hours of the population on their land plots, which was accompanied by the erasure of gender differences. At the same time, in urban settlements, a clearly noticeable increase in the level of employment was noted, while in 
rural areas - a decrease. But despite the fact that the number of rural residents for whom a household plot is a forced choice due to the lack 
of an acceptable alternative has significantly decreased, for many rural residents the household plot continues to be an important means of 
self-sufficiency in agricultural products. Among men and women involved in subsidiary plot activities, a more than twofold reduction in the most active participants has been noted. Permanent paid employment reduces the time spent by both men and women from urban and rural families on work in household plots by a third. For many women, who spend three times more time on household chores than men, work in the subsidiary plot becomes a forced burdensome occupation.

ABSTRACT

An urgent problem of the spatial development of the Russian Federation continues to be a high degree of interregional differences in indicators of socio-economic development in general, including the level and quality of life of the population. The article analyzes the differences 
in the main indicators of the quality and standard of living of the population among the regions of Russia. For a comparative assessment of 
regions by the quality and standard of living of the population, integral indicators (objective and subjective) have been developed, including 
an assessment of the labor market and the quality of employment, financial situation, as well as housing security and the quality of housing conditions. The purpose of the article is to identify interregional differences based on the developed ratings of objective and subjective 
integral indicators of the standard of living of the population in Russia. The results of the study are based on official statistical data from 
Rosstat and the results of a comprehensive observation of the living conditions of the population (2014, 2018, 2022). The methodology of 
the study is based on the use of the expert Pattern method, which made it possible to calculate the ratings of the subjects of the Russian 
Federation according to integral indicators of the quality and standard of living of the population. The article provides a dynamic analysis of 
regional differences in the quality and standard of living from 2014 to 2022, and identifies the main trends and features of the development 
of the subjects of the Russian Federation. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the development of a methodological recommendations 
for assessing interregional differences in the standard of living of the population based on ratings of integral indicators: objective and subjective, and their components, taking into account the material basis of the quality and standard of living of the population. The developed rating 
assessment methodology made it possible to identify not only changes in integral indicators, but also the main reasons for such changes.
