Abstract

The article confirmed the view of economists that the concept of the shadow economy is more concerned with socially neutral or socially positive non-taxable sources of income of citizens and subjects of economic relations. It is proved that the general trends of the informal activities in Ukraine are directly related to the shadowing of the labor market as primary link of informal sector of economy. This way the preconditions of high-level of wages shadowing in the national economy were covered. The author presents the results of sociological research on welfare and shadowing of sources of income, which were compared with the official data of state bodies. Also, to compare the data of official and public opinion research shows data on the informal labor market in selected countries. It is possible to form an opinion that the informal segment of the labor market significantly formed by the low-skilled workers and thus low paid jobs. It is proved that any fraud in the labor market, which is a prerequisite for large-scale shadowing of economy, is impossible without establishing a strong financial base. To confirm this view the dynamics of the number of offenses detected in the financial and credit system of Ukraine for 1998 - 2010 years was shown. The author calculated the shadow wages across sectors of economy at the beginning of 2013, the results showed that in industries such as construction, agriculture and trade the level of informal wages ( \"in envelope \") exceeds 30%.
