Abstract
The purpose of this study is to assess the level of gender differences in the labor market of Kazakh-stan before and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The relevance of the study is provided by the need to investigate the causes of gender differences and gender discrimination in the labor market, as well as the importance of developing measures to improve gender policy. The paper raises the issue of women’s opportunities and rights in the labor market for the effective use of women’s potential for the benefit of the country. A literary review has shown that a special place among various works is occupied by an approach that focuses on the influence of the social structure of society on the relationship between the sexes, the empirical basis of which is the results of specific sociological studies. This study is based on complex approaches, such as systematization and grouping of statistical data. Statistical data were taken for 2018-2021 from the Bureau of National Statistics by gender. The developed methodological tools will allow for a reliable and formalized analysis of the gender pay gap and identify the main determinants of gender pay differences. The proposed indicators differ in the availability and possibility of analyzing indicators at the regional level. The results of the study showed the current state of the labor market in the gender context and it was revealed that women’s labor is less in demand and valuable than men’s labor. The results of the study can serve as a scientific justification for the implementation of an effective policy in the field of women’s empowerment in the labor market
