Abstract

The study of the socio-professional structure of employment of the rural population of Russia in the informal sector is based on the Federal state statistics service (Rosstat) database, obtained in 2011-2017 as a result of a survey of households and individuals commissioned by the Government of the Russian Federation. The interview method interviewed rural population aged 16 years and over in 9 federal districts. It was revealed that the transition to the market in the 1990s was accompanied by a decline in the level of rural employment in agriculture and growth in other sectors of the agro-industrial complex led to the transformation of the social and professional structure of the village and the formation of the informal sector, one third of those employed in which are rural residents.
