| Annotation: | The article considers the formation of the self-employment regime and its gradual development in the Russian Federation. The authors found that the introduction of the tax on professional income resulted in an increase in the number of self-employed citizens and entrepreneurs using this tax regime. The study showed that in the Novgorod region there is a significant increase in the number of self-employed citizens, exceeding the initial forecast estimates. A signifi- cant share of payers of the tax on professional income in the structure of economic activity of the region is indicated, which reflects the impact on active involvement in the sphere of employment. An assessment of the effectiveness of the me - asures of state support applied at the regional level is given. Actions for the implementation of the regional component of the federal project “Creating favorable conditions for the implementation of activities by self-employed citizens” are presented. Regional authorities carry out systematic work to involve and motivate citizens to legalize labor activity. Trai ning programs, consultations and seminars are held, subsidies are allocated and preferential loans are issued. The annual increase in the number of self-employed people allows replenishing the treasury of the region and expanding the regional entrepreneurial community. Today, we can say that the institution of self-employment has proven its worth: firstly, it is a legal way out of the “shadow” for small (family) business entities and secondly, it is one of the effective me - chanisms for combating unemployment. The stable growth in the number of self-employed, despite economic difficul- ties, speaks of the effectiveness of the measures introduced by the state to support this institution. It is the comprehen- sive approach, including updating legislation and improving state support measures that will increase the entrepreneurial activity of the population, which is one of the strategic objec- tives of the state. | ||
