1. INTRODUCTION
The labor market is a set of social and labor
labor relations between buyers and sellers concerning
the employment and labor use conditions. The implementation of employment relations is
based on the supply and demand mechanisms, and determines the quantitative and qualitative
parameters of labor reproduction.
tion. As a result, a certain balance of interests of employees and
employers is achieved, which contributes to the development of the national economy.

The employment sector can be considered as a kind of litmus test, which characterizes the
general macroeconomic situation in the country, the structure of its national economy, the
level of development of market forms of economy management, institutional support of social
and labor relations, and the level of entrepreneurial activity of the population. The
imperfection of the employment composition is both a consequence of the deep economic
crisis and one of the obstacles to overcoming it.
Overcoming the problems of high unemployment (overt and covert) and low-productivity
employment of the population is necessary condition to form prerequisites for economic
growth. For this reason, the study of international experience in ensuring productive
employment of the population is becoming increasingly important.

determinants of social harmony. At a time when social tension becomes a form of destructive
social reaction (conflict, denial of recognition, sabotage, passivity, destructive and hostile
actions), it creates a threat to national security. Monitoring of social sentiments (forming a
subjective aspect of social tension) and determination of social well-being deterioration
factors based on the statistical data analysis (objective aspect of social tension) are the main
prerequisites for the formation of balanced managerial decisions on the distribution and
redistribution of public resources [3].
To monitor social sentiments, it is necessary to classify the social tension factors (Table
1).

paid leave). Discrimination in the labor market is a problem that migrants constantly face in
employment. Other difficulties are associated with the inability to ensure proper working
conditions and hygiene, to implement one's own knowledge and skills in accordance with
education and qualifications, inability to access social services and participate in public life.
4. CONCLUSION
Analysis of the factors of social and occupational tension in the labor market has shown a
trend which is based on the nature of their occurrence and relationship. In general, the
emergence of one of these types of tension in the state entails tension in all other economic
realms. Thus, it is appropriate to note that these factors are interrelated. In turn, the emergence
of tensions leads to an imbalance in the country's labor market.
Speaking about labor migration as a consequence of the labor market crisis, it should be
noted that the recipient countries obtain from migration the economic benefits such as
improving competitiveness of goods produced by reducing production costs using cheaper
labor, and ensuring demand for goods at the expense of additional population that stimulates
the growth of production. Moreover, if migrant workers work in the informal economy sector,
they do not affect the social and pension sectors.
At the same time, the balance between the advantages and disadvantages of labor
migration as a consequence of the labor market crisis is inclined towards the benefit of the
host country. In the context of the labor market crisis, addressing the problems associated
with both the return of labor migrants to their countries of origin, and the stay of migrants in
their countries of temporary employment (especially in the case of job losses) requires
fundamentally new measures on the part of both donor and recipient countries. When
developing migration policies and designing different strategies, it is necessary to take into
account the challenges of both a general nature, as well as national, religious, and local
conditions in each country.
