TRANSFORMATION OF LABOR MARKETS IN RUSSIA’S SINGLE-INDUSTRY CITIES
Abstract
The actual situation in Russia’s single-industry cities by the end of 2016 was evaluated and the proportion of cities where the employment at major enterprises already doesn’t meet the single-industry criteria was calculated. The influence of crisis on the local labor markets and the unemployment rates recorded for them is discussed, and the zones with the most complicated situations are identified. Labor migration of single-industry cities inhabitants is analyzed, as well as its changes during the crisis period. The interrelation between labor mobility, proportion of the major company employees and the unemployment rate in single-industry cities is described.
