Employment growth determinants: case study of post-soviet countries

Abstract

This work is provided with the empirical verification of factors that determine dynamics of employment growth. To achieve this goal, authors use a regression analysis, which allows to define the existence, direction and strength of the connection. The informational background is the international databases, including the World Bank, the European Union, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the United Nations (UN). It allows forming a statistical range of data required for this study during 2000-2018 for 13 Post-Soviet countries. The STATA 11 software package is used for this analysis. The results of this study allow to empirically identify statistically significant and relevant factors among selected economics, social, political, educational groups that determine dynamics of employment growth. This allows forming more sound approaches to the formation of government development programs and government operational actions with a focus on employment growth.
