Abstract
The purpose of the publication is to identify the main features and trends in the number and composition of the self-employed as a labor resources group in the Russian labor market. The article formulates the problems of accounting for the self-employed in the Russian Federation (the existence of various methods of accounting for the number, which leads to significant differences in the values of indicators; the lack of detailed information about the qualitative composition of the self-employed, which complicates the possibility of analyzing their position in the labor market and developing recommendations for their support). Trends in the number of self-employed in the Russian Federation as a whole and in individual districts are revealed. Based on the sociological research conducted by the authors, the characteristics of the qualitative composition of the self-employed as a group of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad region labor resources are given. The main risks for persons conducting entrepreneurial activities within the framework of self-employment are formulated. The main problems that impede or limit the opportunities for successful professional activity of the self-employed are identified. Based on the conducted research, brief recommendations are given to support the self-employed as a group of labor resources.
