The article analyzes the mechanisms and tools for regulating the efficiency of using the labor potential of the Republic of Uzbekistan in the context of the formation of an innovative economy. The focus is on the mechanisms for ensuring employment and creating new jobs as a priority area for the devel-opment of the national economy in 2017-2021. The emphasis is made on the fact that the innovative econ-omy is adequate to the innovative type of employment and its characteristic features are revealed. It has been substantiated that the specific features of the regional economies of the Republic of Uzbekistan determine the corresponding priority areas for the development of the labor market, and the existing problems due to both external and internal reasons are highlighted. It is shown that an increase in the share of labor-intensive industries in the structure of the national economy, especially processing (light, chemical), building materials industry, as well as agriculture, objectively determines an increase in the level of labor intensity of production of goods, works and services and a corresponding increase in employment. The conclusion is substantiated that the formation of new jobs, increasing employment, serves as a guarantor of the effective use of the labor potential of the Republic and the successful solution of a number of social problems.
