Abstract

This article deals with the problem of risk accumulation in the regional labor market of university graduates as a specific socio-demographic group. Risks are investigated on the basis of a synthetic concept that takes into account the mutual influence of subjective (personal) and objective (contextual) factors. The article aimed to study the risk factors of subjective and objective nature in the regional labor market of university graduates. The analysis of the available scientific experience has shown that there is no holistic concept of risks in the labor market of graduates, although there are works that study professional risks in the context of employment, analyzing the situation of young people in the labor market. Risk factors were investigated based on four characteristics describing the risk society: the uncertainty of the situation, uncertainty of the environment, unpredictability of the development trend, and inadequacy of personal resources. The inadequacy of resources is the level of theoretical and practical preparedness, the correspondence of the performed functions to the received specialty, and the desire to change jobs. The information was collected using an online questionnaire. The analysis of each characteristic of the regional labor market showed the presence of enlarged risk factors influencing the decision to choose a job: lack of information and knowledge about the situation in the labor market and insufficient professional potential of graduates, who are motivated only by a prestigious, well-paid job, rather than by creativity and self-realization in their profession.

Summary

Introduction

1.1 A Subsection SampleThe famous Russian sociologist Yanitsky claimed that Russia was a risk society [1]. The market system is the basis of economic and social development, so the risky nature of its functioning negatively affects all social actors, from the micro level – individuals, their families, organizations, ending with the macro level – institutions, including the state. This situation does not contribute to the development of the state and society but inhibits their positive dynamics. Risks for young subjects who have not graduated from a higher education institution will be different from those for former students
