To the question of population employment in the field of services
The problems of employment in the service industries of the most problematic regions of the Russian Federation are considered. The authors note that today comes the understanding that this area is the basis of economic development in our country and the more relevant are the issues related to solving the employment problem in the services sector. The paper proves that solving problems related to employment in the service sector in many regions will help stabilize one of the most socially acute areas - the labor market. As conclusions, the authors note that along with directions to improve the situation on the labor market, it is noted that there is a need to balance the requirements on the part of employers who present qualification requirements for labor carriers. An analysis of regional labor markets in the most problematic regions makes it possible to note that the social and economic situation of many segments of the population has been steadily declining over the course of several years, including due to high unemployment, which can have negative consequences not only in economic, but in social development of regions.
