Abstract
The tasks of a large-scale research of the human potential of the population in regions include studying one of its elements — labor potential. To substantiate the directions of its development, the paper considers the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of labor potential and the factors affecting them. These characteristics and their indicators, which are necessary for conducting an interregional analysis, were analyzed in the previous study. The purpose of the presented study is to identify the factors that act on characteristics of labor potential. Study of the qualitative parameters of labor potential is based on the qualification of employees as the ability to work of a certain content and complexity. Therefore, the analysis focuses on socio-economic factors that directly affect the qualifications of employees. These factors include formal education received by employees (at universities and colleges) and additional professional training (at the intra-company level). Other factors are based on the share of the employed in industries related to development of labor potential (manufacturing and service industries with high employment of specialists). These sectors have a significant demand for skilled labor. The factors also include internal costs of maintaining and improving skills: labor costs and cost of additional professional training. To verify validity of the selected factors, the closeness of the relationship between their indicators and indicators of the quality of labor potential was examined by the method of paired correlation. In the vast majority of cases, a significant correlation has been established. Therefore, the proposed factors can be used to substantiate the regulatory effects on the quality of labor potential.
