Employment Strategies for Refugees and Forced Migrants: A Regional Aspect
Abstract
The movement of people from one place to another can be caused by a variety of factors, including conflicts in the military, political or socio-economic sphere, natural disasters and other situations that force people to seek safety in other countries. As a result, there is a change not only of the country of residence, but also of lifestyle, social status, place and type of employment. The situation, which is quite difficult for migrants, forces them to change and build employment strategies in proportion to the possibilities of labor realization in the country (region) of residence — labor market conditions, established labor regimes, peculiarities of remuneration and labor incentives, etc. The purpose of the article is to conduct an empirical study of the employment strategy of refugees and forced migrants. The object is refugees and forced migrants from Ukraine who arrived on the territory of the Tyumen region. The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that forced migration is a global problem, and the possibility of “embedding” migrants, especially forced ones, has a decisive impact on the economic aspects of the country and the development of its regions. The significance of this study is particularly high and on the basis of the fact that there is a shortage of qualified specialists in various industries in the Tyumen region and the labor market is characterized as labor deficient.The consideration of the problem is based on the use of various methods of scientific analysis, the main of which are survey and statistical methods, methods of generalization, systematization and grouping; official data of international organizations dealing with the problem under consideration, official statistics of the Russian Federation and Tyumenstat, official data of the Federal Migration Service of Russia and the Migration Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia are reflected in the work in the Tyumen region. The results consist, firstly, in the study of common problems faced by refugees and forced migrants in the labor market of the Tyumen region, secondly, in the study of the features of labor integration of migrants from Ukraine, thirdly, in the consideration of employment strategies for refugees and forced migrants for their successful integration into the regional labor society.
