HUMAN RESOURCES AS A FACTOR OF PROVIDING UKRAINE SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM IN MODERN CONDITIONS

The purpose of the article is to research and analyze indicators that directly effect on the level of country’s human resources development, and assessment of Ukraine’s rating place among other countries. The following methods of scientific research, such as generalization, comparison and analysis were used to achieve the goal. The attention is focused on the fact that in conditions of post-industrial economy, the role of human and its knowledge increase, resulting in implementing the human development concept. This concept is aimed at forming measures to prevent the population impoverishment, unemployment, loss of health by stimulating human development, increasing its role in society, and, at the same time, increasing responsibility to society. The main task of the concept is to ensure the welfare of the person. The article shows the comparative assessment of Ukraine’s ranking among other countries according to the human development index and its components. The following indicators such as gross national income per capita, average and expected duration of training, average life expectancy at birth were analyzed. It was agreed that economic ability to create and use human resources to a greater extent determines human well-being and is the main criteria for assessing the social security level. Since the background for well-being is income, education, and human health, social security becomes an integrating link between the modern concept of human development and the state social policy. In this manner, everything that reduces welfare, harms a particular person and society as a whole are factors that threaten social security. In this context human resources emerged as a key resource to the state development.

Rating assessment of scientific and pedagogical workers: theoretical and methodical aspects within a market approach

The article investigates the theoretical and methodological principles of scientific and pedagogical workers rating assessment in higher educational institutions (HEI). According to the results of broad literature analysis, rating systems formation peculiarities of scientific and pedagogical university workers were determined. Further development of approaches to specification and detailing of the essence, functions, purposes and tasks of rating assessment, formation of principles, requirements and criteria, justification and rating models selection, harmonization of theoretical concepts with the practice of applying procedures for rating assessment in the HEI is substantiated. Research novelty is to elaborate on the essence and functions of scientific and pedagogical workers rating assessment system being considered as a multidimensional information system, which in turn is the subsystem of a more general management system. Scientific and pedagogical workers rating assessment system involves continuous observation, measurement and controlled object conditions evaluation, operational management decisions adoption, ensures the implementation, verification and review of management objectives, promotes educational and scientific standardization processes, provides ongoing regulation and forecasts further development. Rating assessment system is inextricably linked with professional activities monitoring of scientific and pedagogical workers in higher educational institutions and performs similar functions, such as informational, management, systematic, predictive, activating, analytical, qualimetric, corrective, diagnostic and formative ones. An important element of the scientific novelty studies is the feasibility justification of using a market approach based on marketing, social and ethical concepts marketing in formulating the goals, objectives and rating systems constructing principles for scientific and pedagogical workers. It is established that the most relevant principles in scientific and pedagogical workers rating systems formation are the principles of integrity with the general management system, dynamism and adaptability, orientation towards the needs of educational and scientific services consumers. Prospects for further research are related to the theoretical foundations development and methodology for building marketing complexes of educational and scientific services aimed at maximizing the consumers and society needs, which will be attained through more efficient management of human resource potential based on the use of rating models.
