| description |
Over the past 20 years Ukraine
experienced fundamental structural changes due to transition
to a market economy and integration with the world.
Transition reforms accompanied by the collapse of
traditional trade and production links with the other
republics of the former USSR and Comecon countries entailed
asymmetric effects on regions, reflecting an uneven
distribution of winners and losers from transition.
Geographical mobility of labor is one of the major
mechanisms (alongside with capital mobility, wage and price
flexibility, and institutional mechanisms for redistributing
income across regions) in facilitating regional adjustment
to idiosyncratic shocks. The ability of workers to move
freely from one geographical location to another inside the
borders of their country, in pursuing the same occupation or
changing occupations, is of particular importance for
efficient matching of labor demand and supply and reducing
structural unemployment. This paper seeks to fill gap in the
literature on patterns of internal labor mobility in
Ukraine, its main characteristics and potential for reducing
persistent regional labor market disparities and imbalances
in economic and human development. The next chapters of the
paper are organized as follows: second chapter evaluates the
magnitude of disparities in regional labor market and
socio-economic indicators over time, with a special focus on
its potential impact on decision of individuals to migrate
to another settlement; third chapter provides an overview of
the available data sources on internal labor mobility in
Ukraine, quantifies internal migration based on aggregate
administrative data, discusses its trends over time and
compares it levels to those found in developed and
transition economies. Fourth chapter provides multivariate
statistical analysis of the determinants of inter-regional
migration in 2002-2010 based on administrative region-level
data. Fifth chapter summarizes the findings of empirical
studies on determinants of the migration decision of
Ukrainians. Sixth chapter examines short-term labor
migration including everyday commuting in 2005-2010 and
measures its covariates using individual-level Labor Force
Survey (LFS) data. Seventh chapter summarizes the main
findings and concludes. |
