Abstract

Trends in demographic processes, such as births and deaths, are analyzed. The structure of the causes of mortality in 2005 and 2019 and shifts in the structure of mortality have been determined. The main indicators of the health care system in 1995-2017 are analyzed. The directions and tasks of the started reform of the health care system are determined. Quantitative parameters of changes in the system of vocational and higher education in Ukraine for 2010-2019, which affect the level of development of labor potential, are analyzed. It is noted that there is an imbalance in the labor market. The number of applicants for one vacancy in the professional context is analyzed. Indicators of employment of the unemployed by both private employment agencies and the State Employment Service are given. The connection between the structure of employment and the processes of deindustrialization, which began in Ukraine in the 1980s, is determined. It is indicated that the processes of deindustrialization taking place in the developed countries of the world and in Ukraine have different colors. Deindustrialization in developed countries is viewed positively as a creative process that is supported by the concepts of development "Industry 4.0". In Ukraine, deindustrialization is defined as a negative phenomenon, which is due to the return to the pre-industrial stage of development and is accompanied by a decline in living standards. One of the reasons for the deindustrialization of Ukraine is the decrease in the knowledge intensity of the production of material goods and, as a consequence, the deformation and isolation of the education system from the real needs of the economy. The priority steps of the state policy directed on formation and development of labor potential of a society are defined. These steps should be aimed both at the development of human resources, especially the adult population, and at the support of domestic producers. It is noted that without state support for the development of young industries it is impossible to increase the productivity of the economy and raise living standards.
