Employment structure and the level of education of Kyrgyz in the Krasnoyarsk territory

Abstract

n the basis of statistical data and materials of sociological survey, the structure of employment and the level of education of Kyrgyz in the Krasnoyarsk territory were determined in the article. Incompleteness of information about the total number of Kyrgyz in the Krasnoyarsk territory led to the choice of research of intelligence type. 106 people aged 18 to 65 years were interviewed, of which 58 were men (54.7%) and 48 women (45.3%). Of the total number of respondents, 28.3% were students of the Siberian federal university (SFU). Non-random (spontaneous) types of selection were used. As a result of the study, the professional structure of Kyrgyz migrants in the Krasnoyarsk territory was described. The information about areas of their employment available in the special literature was clarified. Widespread opinion that the majority of Kyrgyz in the Krasnoyarsk territory are employed in the field of trade and entrepreneurship has not been confirmed. Men are dominated by unskilled workers (38.5% of respondents) and skilled workers (30.8%). Most women are housewives (35.1%), are employed in unskilled work or work as salesmen (24.3% each). In total, 17.1% of Kyrgyz are employed in the field of trade and entrepreneurship. Most immigrants do not work in their specialty, and many were changed not only their profession, but also the area of their employment. At the same time, the study revealed a positive dynamic in the level of education in the Kyrgyz. From 2010 to 2020, the proportion of people with secondary special and higher education increased among them. This trend has not yet been reflected in the scientific literature and official statistics. The growth of education and good knowledge of the Russian language create the prerequisites for the successful adaptation and integration of Kyrgyz migrants.
