Abstract

Gender-specific labour market issues, both globally and regionally, are very acute for the global society. The relevance of the chosen subject of the study is based on the fact that the existence of gender inequalities entails unequal opportunities for self-fulfilment for men and women in all spheres of life. The purpose of this research is to identify and compare contemporary gender-specific features of the global labour market and the labour market of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The methodological approaches of this study are based on a combination of system analysis methods, in particular: analytical, statistical and graphical. The main results that emerged from this study are the outcomes of a comparative analysis of the global labour market and the labour market in Republic of Kazakhstan and their interpretation. In the course of the comparative analysis, at the level of the world labour market and the Republic of Kazakhstan labour market, the following were analysed: unemployment rates of men and women, indicators of the proportion of men and women with higher and secondary vocational education in the economic population structure, indicators of average hourly wages of men and women by main occupation, indicators of the gender structure of branches of the national economy, and economic activity of men and women. The results of the research and the conclusions obtained have significant practical value for understanding gender inequalities in the global and Republic of Kazakhstan labour markets and can be used for further research to develop ways to overcome gender inequalities in the labour markets.
