A dynamically developing labor market has been created in the country, economic activity and the level of employment are steadily increasing. The problems of the labor market, employment and unemployment are among the most important socio-economic problems of our time. The analysis of the labor market has revealed its strengths and weaknesses, as well as the need to plan certain measures to help solve the identified problems through promoting productive employment of the population by increasing the potential of labor resources and engaging citizens in entrepreneurship in accordance with the best international practices.
