Unemployment in the labor market of Russia

Unemployment in the labor market of Russia

The beginning of 2015 was marked by negative trends in the labour market of Russia. Experts in 2014 predicted the sad future in this field. The first wave of layoffs in enterprises has already begun, and it won't be the last this year. According to some estimates, every fifth Russian firm has already fired some of the workers. The terrible word"optimization" Domoklovym sword hanging over tens of thousands of people.

The country's leadership called on citizens to prepare for the fact that the situation on the labour market will deteriorate. At the world economic forum in January of this year, Russian first Deputy Prime Minister said that the country's economy is "hard down," and the Russians will have to prisposobitsya to life in such conditions. And anti-crisis measures will help people adapt to new economic realities.

The scale of the impending unemployment

The Ministry of economic development calculated that in 2015 the army of unemployed will increase more than 400 000 people. This is less than in the crisis 2008-2009. But people who have lost their jobs, it is unlikely to enhance the mood. Although, as reported HeadhHunter of Ukraine, on the link there's always work in the field of security.

Yevgeny Gontmakher, an expert on the labour market, the catastrophic situation is not considered. However, according to him, the number of people who have lost their jobs this year will increase. Particularly hurt small town, where most of the jobs are concentrated on one or two large enterprises. Here is really worth waiting for a sharp rise in unemployment.
The situation in individual regions is the following.

Kirov oblast. Here about the situation on the labour market, said the head of the regional employment center Peter Petrakov. More than two hundred companies reported that they plan to reduce the number of employees. A work drivers, salespeople, employees of financial institutions, people involved in the production and in the agricultural sector. A total of about five thousand people losing their jobs. Last year this figure was halved.

Perm oblast. Chusovskoy metallurgical plant fired more than three hundred employees. In General, the number of workers at the enterprises will be reduced by the end of 2015, 7 thousand people.
In the Kama region, the regional administration decided to conduct a reduction in their ranks. Here in 2015, plans to lay off at least 5% of employees-managers. This is a necessary measure, which prizvana to support the regional budget.

Chelyabinsk oblast. The largest manufacturer of road construction machinery Chelyabinsk Tractor plant also plans layoffs in connection with the reorganization. First, more than six thousand people was going to dismiss until April. But later decided to wait until may. It is possible that layoffs will not be, but nobody guarantees can not give.

Also in the area closed several plants of the company "Baltika", which more than five hundred people have already lost their jobs.

Volgograd oblast. Volgograd "Himprom" has planned three waves of layoffs that will make the unemployed about 4 thousand people. 770 of them have already applied to the employment centers.
In Siberia, according to Novosibirskstat, in the last quarter of 2014 the number of unemployed grew by 10% compared to the previous periods. The city of Krasnoyarsk also announced the downsizing of 164 people, on the grounds that geenies to improve the efficiency of budget expenditures.

No better is the situation with the unemployed and other. According to some sources, the largest number of unemployed registered in Murmansk, Sakhalin regions and in Buryatia.

More than 30 regions of the country announced the reduction of the number of officials in the administrations.
In connection with optimizacia law enforcement across the country with services to be fired 10% of staff of the Prosecutor General and the FSB. Some of the employees will be able to avoid this fate by fleeing from the capital to other regions of Russia where there are vacancies. Mainly to reduce going not officers, and technical workers.

The MOE wave of layoffs has already passed, and the interior Ministry has suspended the recruitment of new staff.

Layoffs in Moscow.

The Russian capital is no exception to that dismal rule. Of course, opportunities to find a job here has always been more than in small towns. But in certain areas the number fired this year to grow significantly.

According to the Agency "Moscow" for the first 3 months of 2015 will remain out of work 23 thousand people.

The first strike would have on health workers. The health care system going to be reformed. The main reason for the reorganization was the optimization of work because all medical services will soon move into a mandatory social insurance system. Every hospital will receive the state assignment. Focusing on it, the doctors themselves will decide who to fire. No one doubts that a reduction will primarily be seniors and out of town. But some Muscovites are doctors also will not work.

Reductions apply to both senior employees and younger staff.

One of the massage therapists that fall under the reduction does not expect to find a new vacancy in their specialty. According to him, neither public nor private hospitals in Moscow have no available jobs. If he can't make money in private practice (in connection with the crisis the number of people willing to get on massage significantly decreased), it will change his career and try to get either a loader or forwarder.

Moscow will try to help displaced people in the best of. They will offer to retrain and pay certain cash compensation.

In the banking sector primarily to fire retirees. This is due to the reduction in the number of banks because of the new wave of economic crisis. Or do some banks close their branches, as did Unicredit Bank, or significantly reduce the number of staff in them.

For example, "the Renaissance the capital" plans to dismiss 6% of employees of the head office in Moscow.
Optimization of busy Moscow and other financial institutions. The Board of the National reserve Bank has decided to release from posts of three financiers. Almost fifteen hundred people would be fired from VTB. The Bank of Moscow will reduce 2 thousand employees.

Some of the sacked officials, not wanting to lose the workplace, seek legal help. Lawyers help people recover, but not for long. Employers will sooner or later find a reason to get rid of workers for some unpleasant article, which will be very difficult to find a new job in this field. Therefore, the majority goes no one objected.

The problem with the layoffs is complicated by the fact that some employers refuse to pay not only the severance payments, but arrears of salary to those who fired. Motivated by the lack of money from a company or firm.

On the other hand, many companies are trying to keep their staff, reducing the working day and the number of shifts. Promyshlenniki hope thus to get through the hard times of crisis and to retain its most valuable workers and experienced professionals.

Unemployment comes to St. Petersburg. Officials of the Northern capital, saying that the layoffs will not become widespread. The unemployment rate is disastrously high. However, experts in the field of the labour market does not agree with such optimistic claims. Again, the first will be to dismiss the journalists, employees of banks and builders. But this is not limited. Industrial enterprises are also preparing for the notorious optimization. According to the Chairman of the Union of one of the Pe
tersburg enterprises of Alexander zvezdina employers actively using the rumors of mass layoffs. They play on people's fear to lose a workplace and are often forced workers to accept unfavorable working conditions.

As it seems the recruitment agencies.

Founder and leader of Pruffi recruitment Agency Alyona Vladimirskaya believes that we can expect three waves of cuts.The layoffs will affect workers in the service sector, financiers, realtors and journalists. The business will minimize the costs and optimize your work.

In the same way characterizes the situation Elena Nikiforova of a recruitment Agency "Triumph". In her opinion the reason for mass layoffs was the restructuring. Often the cause of job loss becomes a change of office location of the firm or company To them in the Agency are people of the productive age from 30 to 50 years. They're lawyers, financiers, managers of an average link. Despite the fact that vacancies is, the salary leaves much to be desired. Although in hard times, people settle for low wages.
These words came from the mouth of the Manager of another recruitment company Staffline Taisia Coats. Most applicants to the Agency managers, who worked in the field of marketing. The average age of applicants does not exceed 45 years. Many workers of regional offices of companies that are closed EN masse in order to save money and due to lack of funding. Unlike previous years, when clients were those who were resigned, this year people who lost their jobs as a result of the cuts.

Director of Siberian recruitment Agency "business People" Elena Parshikova noticed that has drastically changed the attitude of people to their positions. People don't want to lose the existing jobs. Changed the list of occupations in demand. The demand for engineers, sales specialists, service personnel has declined considerably. Without work there are employees of the financial sector, trade and transport. However, all also sought out computersite qualified workers and specialists of rare professions.

Representatives of all recruiting companies agree on one thing: professionals without work will not remain. Will have to change their approach to the selection of vacancies. It is possible that many will have to change not only the workplace but also the place of residence, what you need to be ready.

Based on the foregoing, we can draw the following entries

The economic crisis this year, will affect almost all spheres of activity. Layoffs can not be avoided neither in the public nor in the private sector.

In each region at risk will be different profession. But the most vulnerable are government employees, banks and the financial industry and the service sector.

First to fire will be pensioners and non-resident (fall into this category and come to work the citizens of neighboring States). Then the reduction will unskilled workers, not influencing the quality of the final product.

The number of jobs in staffing agencies and state employment offices will be reduced. But this does not mean that we should not seek help from the state. It is possible that re-qualification courses will open someone to new possibilities and perspectives.

We can expect a significant reduction in wages.

It is possible that in connection with the mass optimization of work of the enterprises will increase migration within the country, as people prefer to move to make up for the shortage of specialists in some regions.

State to the best of their effort trying to prevent a sharp rise in unemployment, providing financial support to companies and adds to the work of the state employment centers. Officials continue to claim that the situation is under control. Is it true? By the end of 2015 it will become clear.

Not worth it to hope for outside help. If you understand that you will soon face dismissal, it is not necessary to rely on luck. Better start looking for another job, think about your own business or retraining. In any case, "rescue of drowning – the handiwork of drowning."
