Results of using patents in labor activity of foreign workers in Sverdlovsk oblast

The patent system for registration of employment of foreign workers in the domestic labor market is one of the mechanisms for their work regulation. Its introduction was preceded by preparatory work, analysis of the practice of using such tools in foreign experience. At present, there have been accumulated data that allow us to evaluate the results and develop solutions for their improvement on the basis of regional data. The purpose of the study is to analyze the effectiveness of using the system of patents for foreign workers in the labor market of Sverdlovsk oblast, as well as the revenues to the regional budget to develop recommendations for theirs increase. Analysis of data from the Department of Labor and Employment, comparison of expenses and income from the use of patents in Sverdlovsk oblast was chosen as the main research method. The results of the study show that there are reserves to improve the efficiency of the use of patents, as well as to increase tax revenues from foreign workers. According to indirect data, it can be concluded that there is an increase in the number of cases of illegal employment of foreign citizens in the territory of Sverdlovsk oblast and an increase in the number of forged documents (including documents confirming the payment of tax), which negatively affects the effectiveness of the use of patents. There is a need for reorganization of the mechanism for using patents for foreign workers, a closer integration of the state authorities of the region to maximize the effect of the use of this category of labor resources. Consolidation of responsibility for regulating the labor market of foreign workers in one supervising authority requires a separate study, now it is "scattered" over several structures that does not allow them to fully analyze and improve the efficiency of using patents.
