“…It follows from Table 2 that the increase in the efficiency of attracting talents (x 1 , x 2 ) strongly influences such economic results as the increase in the number of employees and the value of fixed assets of enterprises (y 3 , y 5 ). According to the relevant recommendations (Babiarz et al, 2020;Hussin et al, 2014), such a relation is estimated as average -within the correlation coefficient values of 0.4-0.59. In terms of talent retention (x 3 , x 4 ), the correlation relationships with the results are somewhat lower and insufficient to conclude that there are significant or even moderate relationships.…”

The ability to attract and retain the talents is an important factor in the competitiveness of countries, as it is confirmed in our study. At the level of small and medium-sized enterprises, hiring and retaining skilled workers is one of the most difficult tasks of HR management, especially in transition economies with a high intensity of “leaching out” the skilled workers due to labour migration. Our research in Ukraine, which is a prime example of such countries, conducted via the cluster analysis allows us to conclude that the problems of hiring and retaining skilled workers have some connection with profitability: there is almost always a problem with filling vacancies with people of all educational levels in unprofitable enterprises, which is not typical of profitable businesses. The main problems with filling vacancies according to employers’ estimations are: 1) market factors – shortage of employees with the required skills; 2) internal problems of ensuring the attractiveness of jobs (material – pay, and intangible – career prospects, flexible working hours, legal employment); 3) internal factors of inefficient HR management, including recruiting; 4) psycho-physiological factors of job satisfaction. However, there are no close links between the factors of hiring effectiveness and retention of skilled workers with the economic success of the organization in the form of the growth of assets, revenues and stuff. This leads to the conclusion that the practices of human resources management in small and medium-sized businesses in Ukraine are largely built chaotic, without analyzing the impact on the efficiency of the use of other resources and without providing links with the overall economic efficiency of enterprises.

“…In this regard, since the appearance of one of the most famous scientific papers in this field, the existing approaches to security assessment, to some extent, take into account the components that characterize security in an 'objective sense' (absence of threats) and in a 'subjective sense' (absence of fear) (Wolfers, 1962). The creation of appropriate state-funded and non-state financial supporting funds is the main idea of the functioning of an economic mechanism for maintaining social security of the state, which has clear links between individual perception and security at the national level (Babiarz et al, 2020).…”

The links between lawful economy and the shadow economy with social safety are investigated. Based on the existing methods of estimating the shadow economy, it is determined that its official level in Ukraine exceeds the critical one (30% according to the Ministry of Economy) by most estimation methods and was ranging from 18 to 46% in 2018. This significant shadowing of the economy has a negative impact on GDP (correlation coefficient -0.729) and; is directly related to the low competitiveness of the economy as per the world rankings. Having impact on the generation of secondary income through fiscal redistribution mechanisms, the shadow economy has a negative impact on the main components of social safety, including the spread of poverty, maintaining an inefficient cost structure with a high share of food expenditures (which is also a sign of low living standards); and limited housing opportunities. The relationship between the shadow economy on the one hand and economic & social safety on the other (-0.865 and -0.560, respectively) has been determined using the correlation analysis. Economic losses from the reduction of tax revenues to the budget have been estimated to confirm the need to develop mechanisms to unshadow the economy as one of top priorities for public administration in the social sphere in Ukraine.
