On the basis of comparative monitoring of the state of the labor market in the republics and regions of the Volga Federal District, the main criteria for employment and unemployment during the period of coronavirus infection COVID-19 are summarized. The general indicators for the regions during this period are the level of economic development, demographic situation, the share of labor migration, the number of labor force, the level of wages, and others. Measures to mitigate the situation on the labor market include: state support for enterprises implementing investment projects, stimulating employers to develop production and create jobs in all spheres of the economy, provision of social assistance to unemployed citizens on the basis of a social contract, assistance in finding a job, development of the national project “Small and Medium Business and Support for Individual Entrepreneurial Initiatives”, vocational training and additional vocational education, decrease in informal employment, widespread use of active policy measures in the labor market and others. This will make it possible to successfully implement, up to the level of 2019, such targets as an increase in the number of employed citizens, a decrease in the number of unemployed citizens and, on this basis, an increase in the number of employed citizens.

Key words: labor market, employment, unemployment, employer, enterprise, workplace.
