Social policy in the sphere of labour: criteria of effectivenessand directions of modernization
In the article a system of criteria of effectiveness for policy in the sphere of labour is pre- sented. The system based upon the method of optimal intervals encompasses indicators of employment, wages and reconciliation of interests. It is demonstrated that in Russia the actual values of indicators lie outside the optimal intervals which is a signal of very low ef- fectiveness of public policy in the sphere of labour and of labour relations crisis. The most problematic areas are violations of labour legislation, unjustified biases of labour remunera- tion, weak social activity of employees in protecting their rights. A system of institutional reforms aimed at modernization of the labour sphere with purpose of its humanization is substantiated.
