Abstract

Currently, Volgograd region is faced with the problem of population decline. This problem can have a negative impact on the economic security of the area. The article substantiates the author's position that life expectancy isn’t only a social indicator of the quality of life, but also an economic indicator – the quality of labor. The mortality rate of the working-age population – an indicator of the share of the working personnel, which, carrying out labor activity, has actually not had the physical ability to work. According to Rosstat, life expectancy in the Russian Federation is increasing. At the same time, information on increases in life expectancy is a projected achievement that demographers hope to see in the future. Unofficial sources point to the fact that today the real life expectancy of Russians is significantly lower than the official forecast. The author proposes a method of studying trends in life expectancy and quality of labor, based on the study of the structure of the sex-age composition of the deceased in certain periods of time. The paper provides an example of such a study based on random sample data. The value of this work is that the used method allows not only to trace the trends in life expectancy, but also assess the changes in the age composition of the deceased in certain periods of time.
