Education as a priority direction of development of industrial enteprises and it’s digitalization

Problem setting. With increasing globalization challenges, the main productive force of society and the rapid socioeconomic revival of countries is human capital, which is becoming a powerful integral part of any model of innovative development. Human capital, ie knowledge, talents, skills, abilities, experience, intelligence of people today is the driving force of the digital economy. Digitalization will significantly increase labor productivity in Ukraine and become a powerful multiplier capable of launching the Ukrainian economy in the shortest possible time and ensuring its real growth. Today, digitalization is one of the key factors in improving the education system. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Various aspects of the introduction of digitalization in the educational space have been the subject of research by foreign (K. Bassett), C. Gere, G. Creeber, G. Deree, M. Deuze, G. Creeber and R. Martin (G. Greeber & R. Martin), L. Manovich (L. Vanovich), J. Stommel (J. Stommel), M. Hand (M. Hand) and domestic (V. Bykov, D. Galkin, M. Zhaldak, M. Leshchenko, P. Matyushko, O. Ovcharuk, V. Rebrina, O. Strizhak, M. Shishkina, A. Yatsyshyn) scientists, but despite the interest shown by the scientific community, the issue of digitalization in modern educational space need further research, especially in a pandemic and the need for distance learning. Target of this research is to determine the role of education in the context of the development of digital transformation of society, the formation of “intellectual enterprises” and “intellectual industry”. Article’s main body. Today, the governments of most European countries are making significant efforts to modernize their education systems through the use of digital technologies. The development of digital education initiates the emergence of new educational practices, which in turn contributes to the transformation of the educational system as a whole. The field of education, localized by institutional, temporal and spatial frameworks, is significantly modernized due to the introduction of digital technologies in the educational process. Ukraine has also embarked on the path of digitalization, as evidenced by the adoption in 2018 of the Concept of Development of the Digital Economy and Society of Ukraine for 2018-2020. According to the Concept, digitalization of education is a modern stage of its informatization, which provides saturation of information and educational environment with electronic and digital devices, tools, systems and electronic communication between them, which actually allows integrated interaction of virtual and physical, ie creates cyberphysical educational space. Today, based on the statutory powers, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and the State Agency for e-Government have the greatest influence on the development of digital competencies. raising the level of digital literacy of the population. One of the main means of digitalization of education is the creation of the National Platform for Digital Education. Conclusions. It is concluded that human capital, ie knowledge, talents, skills, abilities, experience, intelligence of people today is the driving force of the digital economy. Digitalization will significantly increase labor productivity in Ukraine and become a powerful multiplier capable of launching the Ukrainian economy in the shortest possible time and ensuring its real growth. It is noted that today digitalization is one of the key factors in improving the education system. In addition to directly affecting the effectiveness of the educational process, digitalization provides a chain of indirect benefits, in particular through digitalization, the educational process becomes more personalized, accessible and flexible, which in turn provides comfortable conditions for self-study, effective development and career growth. Education is one of the basic elements of digital innovation and the digital economy in general, a priority for the development of industrial enterprises in Industry 4.0. It is noted that in today’s conditions it is necessary to focus on such areas as the development of human capital in enterprises through lifelong learning, training, awareness of staff on innovative transformations. It is stated that today there is no doubt that the world of digital technologies in general, and education in particular, is not only a new logical stage in the development of the technological sphere of mankind, but also the entire existing legal and socio-political reality.

Fir Reproduction Technology for Harvesting Coniferous Boughs

The article considers the use of innovative technologies in logging industry. Manufacture of products “for health” can turn into a substantial profit if one approaches the business competently and chooses a low-competitive niche. Nowadays, there are still types of industries where competition is minimal, despite high consumer demand. These include the industrial production of fir needle oil, which is popular with consumers. It is famous for its healing properties and is used in treating colds, intestinal issues, joints, and nervous disorders; in the manufacture of cosmetics and medicines (ointments and creams). However, there are a number of issues related to the organization of the fir needle oil production, which are the basis of legislation in this area. This applies to the harvesting of raw materials. The share of fir stands in the composition of forests is constantly decreasing. In the European part of Russia, it became necessary to find a way to ensure a regular supply of fir needle oil enterprises with the necessary raw materials. The article proposes a new technology for the artificial reproduction of fir plantations for the purpose of their further use in the production of fir needle oil. A periodic cycle, which allows producing fir needle oil wherever a fir plantation is laid out, is recommended. The design of the device has also been developed. It helps to reduce the planting time, the loads on people when forming the planting spot and thereby increase labor productivity. The article materials can serve as a guide for the efficient use of production resources (people and machinery) for those who lease land for fir growing for oil production.

Raising Labor Productivity: from the Shchekino Experiment (1967) to the “Labor Productivity and Employment Support” National Project (2018). What's Next?

The article provides examples of introducing advanced management practices at Russian enterprises, and also describes the experience of highly skilled managers with an adequate to market realities mentality. According to the author, by actively mastering the three “whales” — management, mentality and business culture — we increase labor productivity, and therefore we have every reason to increase the workers' wages, which are unacceptably low today.

Post-Soviet Agricultural Restructuring: A Success Story After All?

Challenging the initial expectation that all post-Soviet economies will evolve from collective toward fully individualized farming, I argue that they separated into two different reform paths. In the European successor countries and Kazakhstan, corporate and family farms coexist, labor exited agriculture, and capital inflow boosted labor productivity (a “Westernization”). In the Transcaucasian and the other Central Asian countries, complete farm individualization did not increase labor productivity much, in turn keeping rural incomes depressed (a “Southernization” akin to the Global South). Future policies should promote income alternatives to agriculture and improve the flexibility and transparency of farm consolidation processes.

Organization and forms of remuneration at enterprises

Currently, amid the economic crisis associated with the Covid-19 pandemic, each enterprise, regardless of its structure and type of ownership, is in a continuous mode of choice: to reduce personnel costs and retain qualified personnel and jobs. At the same time, in order to preserve jobs and continue production activities, it is important not to preserve the employee’s contribution. The employee must be motivated to increase labor productivity and the quality of products, and this must be directly related to his salary.
