Summary

Introduction

The lack of specialists of the appropriate qualification restrains the development of mining industry in Russia. The solution of tactical and strategic tasks of the industry development cannot be carried out without an effective innovative system of training and development of highly skilled personnel. Modern personnel problems at the enterprises involved in the extraction and processing of solid minerals are due to the following factors: - the lack of a close relationship between production, education and science; - insufficient financing of research and development (R&D); - shortage of highly skilled personnel to ensure innovative development of industry enterprises. It is not possible to solve the personnel problems in the industry only by the increase in wages: large businesses traditionally spend most of the profits for dividends to the owners of the company, and small businesses cannot afford to increase their production cost by the wage increase for employees in conditions of severe internal and external competition
