Abstract

The paper discusses the staffing component of the concept of sustainable development of the Russian Arctic macro-region. The results of a study of the staffing needs of the leading employers in the regions of the Arctic Zone of Russia and the correspondence of training of personnel by the system of vocational education in these regions are presented. About 100 leading employers in key sectors of the Arctic economy were covered by a survey on in-demand professions and competencies required to work in the Russian Arctic Zone. Based on the survey, a rating of the most popular professions was formed. A comparative analysis of 50 professions from this list and specialties/areas of training of graduates by the education system of the Arctic regions was carried out. The results of the survey showed that not all of these professions are trained in the territories of the subjects of the Russian Arctic Zone. The results obtained will make it possible to make managerial decisions in advance, which will improve the efficiency of training and use of labor resources and increase the balance of regional labor markets in the territories of the Russian Arctic Zone in terms of qualifications and personnel.
