The purpose of the article is to study a unique and planned sphere of life of social and economic society in the regional labor market. As it also covers the market of workforce directly connected to production, the concepts unemployment and workplace safety are important. The loss of work means low quality of life and the instability of the economy for many people. Employment determines the content of important aspects of social development to meet the needs of people in the labor market. The article emphasizes that the main policy of the state in regulating the labor market is the implementation of an employment policy for the entire population that preserves the natural level of employment, does not allow the emergence of cyclical employment, the formation of a “flexible market” that quickly adapts to internal and external changes, allowing to maintain stability and management. This compared to the traditional market creates conditions for flexible employee management in conditions of incomplete working day, temporary employment, replacement. On this flexible market, every citizen, looking for work, is obliged to find a workplace that meets its requests. In the labor market, public policy goes in two directions. Active training and retraining in order to create new jobs, ensuring employment and deliverance from unemployment. This can include events implemented in the framework of programs in our country. Passive is support for unoccupied citizens by providing social benefits. The main methods applied by the state in providing regional employment include stimulating investment in the economy, depending on the specifics of each region, which is the main condition for creating new jobs.

This work is devoted to considering the level of unemployment in the regional labor market. According to the RIA Rating Agency, a comparative analysis of the unemployment rate in the regions of the Central Chechen Republic for 2018-2019 was carried out, data on the unemployment rate in the Voronezh region for 2015-2019 are given. the results of which revealed a decrease in the unemployment rate over the past five years by 0.9 points. Since high unemployment can lead to serious consequences (exacerbation of the criminal situation in the region, increased crime, which in turn will lead to lower living standards, etc.), measures have been proposed to reduce unemployment in the region, such as: regional regulations governing the creation of additional jobs in sectors of the economy, support for small businesses, development of the affordable housing market, increase in wages, etc. Unemployment, being a rather dangerous phenomenon, requires an employment policy aimed at addressing the primary tasks and mitigating the consequences, as well as at preventing and preventing the growth of unemployment in the future. As a result, it was concluded that it is necessary to improve the regional labor market and approach to organizing and shaping the effective functioning of the employment system and social protection of the population.

The article is devoted to the study of the labor market in the Arctic districts of Yakutia, which is characterized by uncomfortable living and working conditions. The state of the regional labor market is determined by the historical aspect of the development of productive forces and industrial relations; this disproportion has been traditional since the USSR. Today, the labor market is subject to the negative impact of demographic trends, the difficult epidemiological and economic situation in the country and, as a consequence, the growing tension in the labor market. The labor market, like any system, has its own structure and the study of all its components is necessary to achieve the socio-economic objectives of the state. The purpose of the study was to analyze changes in the labor market in the Arctic disctircts of Yakutia, to identify the specifics, key problems and development guidelines. The work was based on the data from regional and municipal statistics. To solve the tasks set, economic and statistical methods of analyzing the current trends in the labor market, including those related to the crisis phenomena of 2020, were used. The object of the study was the Anabar, Lena, Yana, Indigirska and Kolyma groups of the Arctic disctircts of Yakutia. The results of the analysis indicate a high role of migration in the formation of the labor potential of the Arctic districts, a decrease in the number of employees of enterprises and an increase in the number of unemployed people. The author believes that the problems of the Arctic labor market are an obstacle to the sustainable development of the Arctic zone of Yakutia.

The state of unemployment in Chernihiv region is analyzed in the article. The present day situation and the state of labor market make it necessary to detect the groups of population which are at the risk of unemployment. Both the representatives of economic science and the contemporary Ukrainian scientists-geographers have dedicated their works to the investigation of unemployment and the necessity of the state regulation of the matter. The conducted research revealed the most vulnerable groups in the structure of the unemployed and at the same time pointed out the need for searching and applying the new forms and instruments in the state policy to decrease the level of unemployment. The research of the state of unemployment in the region in 2010-2020 proved the tendency to its decrease. According to the official statistics, the level of unemployment in Chernihiv region in 2019 was 10,2 %. The author of the article thinks that the negative tendency on the regional labor market is the decreasing of the number of the officially registered unemployed that can be most possibly explained, on the one hand, by the implementation of complex measures targeted at reducing pressure on the labor market in Chernihiv region and, on the other hand, by the skeptical attitude of people to the registration at the Employment Center as they don’t believe the state authorities to find a job for them. The labor market in Chernihiv region is characterized by the gender gap – the specific weight of unemployed men is 4,9% higher than the specific weight of unemployed women. The level of unemployment among young people is higher in comparison with older age groups, which characterizes this group of population as the unstable one. However, the level of concentration in the distribution of unemployment among the young people tends to decrease in the last years. There is a stable tendency in the growth of unemployment among young people with higher education. The specific weight of unemployed citizens with higher education in Chernihiv region is 46,0%. The growing number of the unemployed with higher education indicates that in the present day social-economic conditions education doesn’t reduce the risk of unemployment. The level of unemployment in Chernihiv region is influenced by the economic activities of the population. The main spheres of the economic activities with the highest unemployment level are agriculture, forestry, fish-farming, state management and defense, compulsory social insurance, retail and wholesale, repairing of transport means, processing. The level of unemployment in rural area exceeds that one in the urban area. There is a disproportion of unemployment rate in different districts. In the half of the administrative districts the unemployment rate is 4-5%. The worst situation is in Nizhyn and Pryluky districts. The short-term prognosis on the number of the unemployed citizens in Chernihiv region is introduced. The number of the registered unemployed in Chernihiv region is expected to increase on 3 thousand people which makes 28,2%. The prognosis on the unemployment rate in Chernihiv region ensures monitoring of the changes, estimating of the tendencies in the development of the situation on the regional labor market and making more appropriate and timely decisions on the site.

The paper deals with comparative analysis of occupations in the regional labor market. Occupation is treated as a multi-dimensional space of characte- ristics, whereas a scalar form of a characteristic makes it possible to carry out a comparative analysis of occupations. Using cluster analysis of a pilot region indicators five meaningfully interpretable clusters of occupations were identified, reflecting their regional specificity.
