Annotation of the results obtained in 2023
At the second stage of the Scientific Project, the following works were performed and the following scientific results were obtained: - An empirical base has been formed containing the necessary processed data for quantitative identification of generational groups of economically active population (EAР) in accordance with the theoretical and methodological tools developed at the first stage of the Scientific Project implementation; - Quantitative identification of the generational groups of EAР was carried out on the basis of: a) the original classification according to the employment situation, determined by a combination of characteristics that take into account their identification as employed or unemployed (considered as carriers of an extreme form of precarization (temporary unemployment)), skill levels, ICT skills and education; b) the original classification according to the concentration of precarization indicators with the allocation of precariously employed (with the highest, high and moderate concentration of precarization indicators - with a decrease in the quality of employment, risks of a decrease in the standard of living of households), employed with individual manifestations of precarization (transition group), employed with the absence of precarization indicators (sustainably employed); c) the original three-parameter segmentation of generational EAР groups, which allows identifying segments (the most vulnerable, vulnerable, transitional, sustainable) based on an assessment of the employment situation (determined by a combination of characteristics), the presence and concentration of precarization manifestations (based on a reasonable system of indicators) and standard of living (based on an assessment of compliance with per capita monetary income standards (option 1) and income used for consumption (option 2)); - New data have been revealed on the peculiarities of dynamics during the transition from one generation of EAР to another: a) the scale and composition of groups identified on the basis of the original classification by employment situation (determined by a combination of characteristics); b) the scale of groups identified on the basis of the original classification by the concentration of precarization indicators (based on a reasonable system of indicators); c) the scale of segments (the most vulnerable, vulnerable, transitional, sustainable) identified on the basis of an assessment of the employment situation (determined by a combination of characteristics), the presence and concentration of manifestations of precarization (based on a reasonable system of indicators) and standard of living (based on an assessment of compliance with the standards of per capita monetary income (option 1) and income, used for consumption (option 2)); - The ways of realizing the labor potential of representatives of the generational groups of the EAР have been identified, determined by involvement in precarization and characteristics of the employment situation ("strategies"), leading to various models of living standards ranging from poverty to high security. The features of living standards models depending on the concentration of precarization indicators in generational EAР groups are revealed: a) in households with sustainably employed representatives of generational EAР groups; b) in households of workers of generational groups in the transition group from sustainable to precarious employment, in groups with moderate and high concentrations of indicators of precarious employment; c) in households of workers of the generational groups with the highest concentration of precarization indicators; d) in households of generational groups with the unemployed; - Proposals have been prepared to mitigate the threats of the impact of precarization on the quality of employment and standard of living of the generational groups of the EAP and to realize the opportunities of their employment situation, taking into account the level of education and ICT skills to improve their standard of living, including: a) General directions that create conditions for improving the quality of employment and standard of living in all generational groups of the EAP; b) Directions specific to the generational groups of the EAP for improving the quality of employment and the standard of living of their households (for the youth, middle and older generations); - A scientific and practical conference "The impact of precarious employment on the quality of employment and standard of living of generational groups of economically active population" was held with the participation of Russian experts; - The report "The impact of precarization on the quality of employment and the standard of living of generational groups of the economically active population" has been published in the form of a monograph, summarizing the main results of the study; - 6 articles have been prepared, 5 of them in leading peer–reviewed scientific publications (indexed in Web of Science/other foreign bibliographic databases); - Reports were made at 5 scientific events (conference, forum, congress, etc.) on the subject of the Scientific Project.

Annotation of the results obtained in 2022
At the first stage of the Project, during the development and updating of theoretical and methodological tools for the study of generational groups of economically active population (EAP), the following scientific results were obtained: 1. Updated social standards for the classification of generational groups of EAP by standard of living; 2. A reasonable classification of generational groups of EAP according to the employment situation, determined by a combination of characteristics that take into account their identification as employed or unemployed (considered as carriers of an extreme form of precarization (temporary unemployment)), skill levels, ICT skills and education; 3. A verified system of precarization indicators that record its possible manifestations (objective and subjective) in various characteristics of employment, differentiated by the level of priority determined by the degree of significance and taking into account the risks to reduce the quality of employment and standard of living; 4. Reasonable classification of generational groups of EAP by concentration of precarization indicators with the allocation of precariously employed (with high and low concentrations of precarization indicators - with a decrease in the quality of employment, risks of a decrease in the standard of living of employed households), employed with individual manifestations of precarization (transitional group), employed with the absence of precarization indicators (sustainably employed); 5. Reasonable three-parameter segmentation of generational EAP groups, which allows identifying segments (the most vulnerable, vulnerable, transitional, sustainable and prosperous) based on an assessment of the employment situation (determined by a combination of characteristics), the presence and concentration of precarization manifestations (based on a reasonable system of indicators) and the standard of living (based on an assessment of compliance with standards of per capita monetary income (option 1) and income used for consumption (option 2)). 6. During the implementation of the works planned at the first stage of the Project, unique databases were formed: 1) a database based on the results of an expert survey containing unique expert assessments on the problems of precarization, obtained on the basis of a specially designed questionnaire, for different categories of experts representing the research community, leading universities, the business community and trade unions; 2) a database containing information on the dynamics of precarization manifestations in Russia according to its reasonable indicators for 2010-2020 (formed for the purposes of verification of precarization indicators). 7. During the work at the first stage of the Project, scientific results were also obtained that expand the information and analytical base on the situation of the generational groups of the EAP: 1) the features of the standard of living of the generational groups (youth, middle and older generations) and its dynamics depending on the place and living conditions (city/village, type of household) and conditions were revealed (opportunities) to form a standard of living – per capita monetary income and income used for consumption, estimated on the basis of an original system of standards identifying the increasing boundaries of living standards models and their transformation from poverty to high security; 2) the levels of proficiency in professional skills of using information and communication technologies (levels of ICT skills), identified on the basis of the original classification, among the generational groups of EAP (youth, middle and older generations), as well as the dynamics of the quality of employment and the level of income provided by it, depending on the available level of ICT skills, are revealed. 8. An Internet site dedicated to the Project has been developed and is being filled (https://www.rea.ru/ru/org/managements/Nauchnyjj-centr-ehkonomiki-truda/pages/grant-rnf.aspx ). 9. The scientific results obtained during the implementation of the first stage (2022) of the Project are published in 6 articles (including 4 articles in leading peer–reviewed scientific publications, including 1 article is in a journal indexed in the Web of Science, 2 articles are in the journals indexed in the Russian Science Citation Index (RSCI), 3 articles are in the journals indexed in other foreign bibliographic databases), presented in the form of reports at five scientific events.
