Labor mobility ( English. Labour mobility ) - mobility, the ability to adapt to the conditions of production, new technology, to be sociable . Includes the willingness to first of all relocate, following the labor situation, to learn a new profession , place of work, lifestyle in general, if necessary. Labor mobility contributes to increasing the level of satisfaction with self-realization and is an indispensable attribute of a civilized, developed and democratic state. In modern Russia, labor mobility is in the affected state and is not patronized by the state. In the current crisis of 2015, about 20,000 people lose their jobs every week in Russia, and less than 30% of them turn to employment services. The state in the fight against unemployment takes a formal-declarative position: declaring support for the unemployed, no real mechanisms are created to prevent it.
At the same time, the expert community - for example, Nikolai Ryzhkov [1] , an expert on the labor market, repeatedly and convincingly proves that today only labor mobility [2] and its support at the state level can save the situation with rising unemployment. “Home is where there is work” —this slogan must become a new paradigm of Russians, since it is pointless to count on state support. Today, the shadow sector is growing in the labor market in Russia: according to official statistics, its growth is estimated at 5% compared with last year - it would be strange that without taking radical measures of support from the state, who are clearly late, underemployment did not grow! And it is absolutely true that the unemployed do not enter the labor market - there is simply no niche for them today: highly professional employees do not find vacancies, and representatives of working professions find their own work - such professions are now in great demand. The struggle of the state against the shadow sector of the labor market is very peculiar. Thus, the Deputy Minister of Labor of the Russian Federation, Andrei Pudov, recently explicitly named people who were forced to receive a gray salary as parasites [3] - they are malicious defaulters and do not replenish the pension fund. And he appreciated this "hole" in more than 300 billion rubles annually. There is a most negative scenario: as part of measures to combat the “shadow” economy, there may be plans to control able-bodied citizens who are unemployed but are not registered at employment centers. After all, there is a chance that these citizens have a gray income, doing business at home, taking out a minimum wage and somehow evading taxes.
