THE QUALITY OF THE WORKFORCE IN MODERN SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The studied economic category "quality of labor force" is marked by the index of global competitiveness of an individual state in the general world situation. As a matter of fact, the quality of the workforce determines the rating of economic viability, along with general factors: public finance management, inflation rate, measures to protect intellectual property rights, a developed judicial system, and more. The quality of the labor force reflects the level differentiation depending on the means of production and represents a set of qualification and personal properties manifested directly in the labor process, broadly covering the professional, physiological and socio-psychological basis of the employee, his adaptive skills as a continuously developing subject of social and labor relations. The improvement of the quality of the workforce correlates with the improvement of the characteristics of its structural elements: natural, acquired and socially significant indicators in the course of performing a certain professional activity. "The quality of labor force" is derived from "labor force", which dualistically reflects the goods in the hands of the worker – the carrier of competencies and capital – having a price after the owner sells the result of labor produced by the worker. The definition under discussion is a dynamic, actively growing economic category that is being transformed due to the development and formation of the qualification skills of the employee, his readiness for these processes in the conditions created by the employer. The development of the quality of the workforce is an indicator of socio–economic, political processes, leading trends in the development of society that affect the labor market. The core of the increase in the quality of the workforce in the conditions of an informational and highly developed technological society with obvious signs of artificial intelligence are creativity, sociability, acceptance of large-scale changes, readiness for education throughout the trajectory of its professional path, the formation of the necessary competencies "ahead of the curve", polyprofessionalism, tolerance to stress and uncertainty in the conditions of multiple environmental challenges.
