Full timetable

An article “Russian salaries caught up Romanian ones. A labor market monitoring” is published by the Kommersant newspaper

The salaries on the Russian labor market are higher than in the other CIS countries and are comparable with the ones in Central and Eastern Europe, claim the experts of the Higher School of Economics in the “Interstate comparison of the salary levels in 2011-2017” monitoring. The calculations are based on the purchasing power parity (PPP).

Who is the Head of the Household?

Domestic work in Russian families is still a woman's business.
