Labour market and employment in Uzbekistan

Abstract

The demographic situation of the population of Uzbekistan and the problems of formation of labour resources, territorial distribution and utilization of labour resources based on it are illuminated in the article. The natural movement of the population of the country today, and in the near future, serves as a leading factor in the effective implementation of the process of reproduction of labour resources. According to the content and essence, the re-establishment of the labour resources is narrower than the re-establishment of the population and it is reflected in the recovery of the number and quality of the economically active population, as well as in the recovery of mental and physical abilities. It has been shown that the demographic situation and demographic development of the regions, on the basis of scientific analysis, are due to the fact that the exact labour resources and the economically active population do not differ significantly in terms of age, sex and territorial composition within the Republic. Furthermore, attempts have also been made to reveal the use of labour resources, employment and its structure of sectors, the problems of employment in men and women and their geographical features. Changes in the population and its employment rate, the share of labour resources in the total population, employment, and labour productivity coefficients of young people, the situation of the economically active population and its dynamics over the past 20 years were analyzed and diagnosed by using comparison and statistical methods.
