УРОВЕНЬ И ДИФФЕРЕНЦИАЦИЯ ДОХОДОВ РАБОТНИКОВ ОБРАЗОВАНИЯ В РОССИЙСКОМ РЕГИОНЕ

Abstract

The problem of signifi cant diff erentiation of incomes of the population in Russia and the regions is still acute. Indeed, there is a signifi cant diff erentiation of incomes and wages of the population according to territorial, sectoral and other characteristics, which is refl ected in a signifi cant stratifi cation of the population in terms of living standards. This requires eff ective measures to overcome the social polarization of society and reduce poverty. In the national development goals of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030, in the context of preserving the population, the health and well-being of people, such priorities are defi ned as ensuring the rate of sustainable growth in the population’s income, reducing poverty. The authors of the article, within the framework of the study, set the goal, which was to determine the degree of diff erentiation in the incomes of educators in the region (Chelyabinsk region). For this, a sociological survey of employees of educational institutions was conducted, the generalization of the results of which made it possible to identify the level of income of employees in the context of territories, types of educational institutions and categories of education workers. For a comparative assessment of the income of employees, the ratio of the level of income recorded in the survey with such indicators as the minimum wage, the subsistence minimum, and the average monthly income in the fi eld of education in the region was demonstrated. This made it possible to assess the current situation with regard to the incomes of workers in the educational sector, to show how the importance of labor in education corresponds to the wages received and, in general, to incomes in this area.
