Abstract

Topicality. Work capacity is seen as an important aspect of well-being and health. One of the most important factors related to work capacity is health-related quality of life (HRQOL), which assesses the physical, mental, and social aspects of a person's health. The purpose of the study was to analyze the international experience of assessing indicators of the quality of life related to health in terms of labor activity and unemployment. Research methods: bibliosemantic research method followed by content analysis of scientific literary sources and electronic resources. Research Results. HRQOL is determined by a system of factors, the analysis of which was carried out with an emphasis on such areas as labor activity and unemployment. Multivariate analysis of a number of studies confirmed that occupational stress, exposure to workplace hazards, occupational accidents contribute to low HRQOL or work-related health problems. The quality of life of the unemployed is lower than that of the employed, besides, it is higher for women compared to men. Representatives of certain professions (teachers, lawyers, medical workers, engineers, insurance agents) have lower quality of life indicators due to a high level of work stress. Employees with higher professional status have higher indicators of quality of life. The quality of life of the population employed in the economies of developing countries is reduced. Conclusions. Thus, the obtained results indicate the importance of identifying factors that directly or indirectly affect all areas of the quality of life related to the health of persons of working age in order to correct them. Since improving the quality of life is one of the key tasks of the country's development planning strategy and its reconstruction in the post-war period.
