Resumen
Descripción
This report suggests measures to help
Russia develop a formal, competitive labor market over the
medium term. The study addresses four major questions: (1)
How well has Russia been able to redress the misallocation
of labor inherited from its socialist past? (2) Do wages
increasingly reflect market forces? (3) Are labor market
institutions consistent with those required in a market
economy? (4) How well has Russia been able to reduce
explicit protection offered by firms and create an effective
safety net? The report addresses each question in a separate
chapter and also highlights key issues and policy options in
each area. The development of a well functioning labor
market will contribute to Russia's ability to integrate
with the global economy, particularly as it faces the
opportunity and challenges that will come with World Trade
Organization accession.
