Abstract
The article examines the state of the Russian labor market in the digital age, namely, gender and age discrimination. Based on the Gender Inequality Index calculated using the WEF methodology, it is shown that over the past decade and a half, the position of the Russian women in the terms of the gender inequality in the economic sphere have improved. However, compared to a number of developed countries, on the contrary, the situation has deteriorated. Moreover, the article proves that the Russian labor market is largely characterized by ageism, which is most strongly manifested in relation to female employees. The most acute problems of the modern Russian labor market still remain: the gender pay gap, horizontal and vertical segregation, significant share of women in part-time employment, stronger age discrimination against the young workers and workers of pre-retirement age.
