According to the scale of assessment of the level of essentiality of differences in
the sectoral structures according to the Ryabtsev index, the structural differences of
basic and chain values are in the range 0,000-0,030 and are characterized as identical.
That is, the calculations confirm the above-proposed suggestion on the conservation of
the existed sectoral structure of employment. At the same time, if to consider the
dynamics of index basic coefficients, then from the Figure 2 it can be seen that during
the period 2012-2017 there was a slight transformation of the employment system by
the end of 2017: the Ryabtsev index approached to the low bounder of the interval
which is interpreted as a quite low level of differences. The obtained results allow
concluding about sustainability of the employment system by the types of economic
activities for the study period.
CONCLUSION
The evaluation of the main indicators of the Ukrainian labour market development
as well as the structural transformations of employment by the types of economic
activity made it possible to identify the following tendencies:
1.
The key factors that determined the nature of the processes ocurring in social
and labour spheres during the study period were conflicts on the east and south of
Ukraine, as well as the economic crises.
2.
For the labour market in Ukraine, on the one hand, the preservation of such
phenomena as a decrease in employment, an imbalance between demand and supply
of labour force in the context of educational and qualification training, a significant
informal employment sector, and a consistently high level of unemployment are
typical. On the other hand, the processes characteristic of the innovation employment
model are actively developing: development of new and nonstandard forms of
employment, increase in demand for intellectual and informational types of work.
3.
In conditions of economic decline, there is an asymmetry in adaptation of
different sectors to new conditions of functioning and, accordingly, their recovery. The
budget sector in the context of ensuring employment turned out to be more resistant to
such fluctuations. Also, such sectors of economy as agriculture, forestry, fisheries,
wholesale and retail trade, repair of motor vehicles and motorbikes quickly enough
managed to reveal their positions and supply workplaces.
4.
In spite of formal correspondence to some external parameters of the
progressive employment model, there are some intra-sectoral imbalances. The
structural shortage of staff, in particular highly qualified one, is growing, what causes
chronic staff deficit in certain sectors of economy, the service sector is shifted towards
“social”. The agrarian sector continues to occupy a significant proportion in the
structure of employed, what is regarded ambiguously as agriculture, as a rule, absorbs
