Abstract

The research analyzes the occupational distribution of employees by sociodemographic groups at the regional level. The relevance of the study derives from the fact that an investigation of the intrare-gional characteristics of employment differentiation makes it possible to obtain more detailed infor-mation on the determinants of occupational segre-gation. The differences in the occupational distribu-tion are analyzed with the help of the Duncan dis-similarity index. The study findings indicate that regions differ substantially in the presence and level of segregation of international migrant workers. The authors suggest a hypothesis that the segregation is caused by the economic factors associated with higher productivity of mono-ethnic groups of em-ployees. To test the hypothesis, the researchers propose an econometric model based on the modi-fied Mincer wage equation. The model evaluation results demonstrate that both economic factors and ethnic discrimination of employees exert an influ-ence over segregation.
