Abstract

The study examines the theoretical background of the issues of gender segregation in the labor market. The description of theoretical approaches to the study of this problem is given, the conclusion is made about the factors that provoked the need to study this problem, its assessment and the formation of management and regulation mechanisms in order to optimize the distribution of labor and maximize the use of labor potential. Separate empirical assessments of gender occupational segregation are considered in the context of world statistics and in comparison with data on Russia. A statistical description of the gender distribution of the labor force in the Russian labor market for the period 2015-2020 is given with an assessment of individual indicators. The structural distribution of the labor force by individual types of economic activity is calculated with an assessment of the dissimilation index based on the principle of structural transformation of the distribution of women's employment, as well as the index of occupational segregation according to the Duncan method with an assessment of the share of participation of the corresponding labor force differentiated by gender criterion in a particular type of economic activity and in the economy as a whole. The conducted research forms the problems of individual motivational professional preferences of employment with the preservation of a stable trend of maximum reduction of gender segregation to a conditional threshold level of gender professional preferences.
