One of the trends in the modern labor market is the increase of its flexibility, which is manifested in the development of forms of employment that do not require a permanent presence at the employer's workplace. If properly regulated, such forms can be used to solve one of the most important problems of Russian society — reducing poverty among families with children. The question of the extent to which poverty affects birth rates is still an open one, as there is contradictory evidence. Nevertheless, it can be argued that the development of non-standard forms of employment is an important tool of socio-demographic policy, which is aimed not only at improving the living standards of families with children but also at regulating demographic processes. The article looks at the dynamics of poverty in families with children and attempts to determine to what extent the development of such forms of employment will affect the demographic situation. It is concluded that poverty reduction in families with children will be positively affected. However, the demographic results will be more controversial.

The Far North is of great importance to the country's economy but social problems appear faster than the authorities have time to solve them. As a result, the macro-region faces a strong permanent migration outflow, which impedes its socio-economic development. One of such problems is the low quality of education. The indicators characterizing the development of the education system in the Far North regions are worse and often the gap with the rest of the country increases. The article considers some problems of education system development in these regions and proposes measures to solve them. Three areas of modernization of the education system can be distinguished. The first is the need for greater attention to demographic trends. Despite the decline in the number of young people it occurs in a wave-like manner and it is necessary to take into account such dynamics. The educational system as a whole, and not just particular levels, should be developed in order to reduce migration outflows. The second direction implies improving the information support of the policy (including the gathering and publication of more statistical data), improving the financing of the education system and libraries, as well as repairing buildings and providing access to high-speed Internet. In this context, special attention should be paid to improving the quality of planning for the development of the education system. The third direction concerns balancing the graduation from educational institutions and the demand for labor in the labor market, reducing the number of graduates who work outside their specialty, as well as increasing the social status and prestige of pedagogical employees.
