Abstract: The article assesses the level of employment and labor productivity in Ukraine as a basic indicator of assessing the level of regional development and focuses on increasing these indicators among citizens of all ages. It is emphasized that a significant challenge at the regional level is limited employment opportunities, and inefficient labor productivity contributes to the emergence of many problems that hinder the development of local communities. Such problems are rising unemployment and social tensions, passivity of community residents, declining gross output and total productivity in communities due to irrational use of human resources. Lack of strategic development planning in territorial communities, migration outside the territorial community and increase in the general demographic and tax burden on the able-bodied population, as active community members usually migrate, while those who are passive and need protection remain.
