Importance The article studies the regional labor markets. This is important for analysis, forecasting and development of programs of socio-economic development of the regions.
     Objectives The purpose of the article is to analyze the state of the labor market of the Khabarovsk Krai, identify the main issues and trends of its development, as well as assess the effectiveness of its functioning.
     Methods For the study, I used methods of economic analysis and the official statistics.
     Results I have estimated the population's age structure from the point of view of human resources using relative measures and coordination. I have reviewed the share of population by age (under the working age, working-age and older the working age), as well as the coordination indicators (labor substitution ratios, pension load and overall workload). The region's labor market is characterized by a number of positive aspects and problems. I compared the labor market indicators of the Khabarovsk Krai with the average values in the Russian Federation and the Far Eastern Federal District, and I found an increase in the effectiveness of the regional labor market. At the same time, I am noting a steady decline in the labor force due to natural decline and migration to other regions of the country and abroad. This indicates the issue of skills shortages, especially blue-collar jobs, which is partly solved by bringing in foreign labor migrants.
     Conclusions To solve the problem of reducing the size of workforce and skills shortages, the Far Eastern Federal District needs to pursue a sound public policy to consolidate the population in the region.
