Abstract

The article discusses issues related to the conceptualisation of digital capital and the mutual influence of it and the labor market in the modern economy. The digital transformations taking place in modern times have significantly changed the living and working conditions of individuals, which is reflected in theoretical studies. The purpose of the article is to assess the possibilities of interconnection and mutual influence of the Russian labor market in the digital economy and digital capital of workers and organisations. Research methods: analysis of theoretical literature, foreign and domestic experience, analysis of statistical data and forecasts regarding the future labor market, made by consulting companies and government organisations. As a result of the study, conclusions were drawn about the existence of mutual relations between digital capital and the labor market, leading to the emergence of new forms of labor (freelance, remote employment), to the disaggregation of organisations and the active use of outsourcing, to the emergence of a new class - precariat, etc. It is assumed that the main factor in the interaction of the labor market and digital capital is the digital divide or the digital divide. The conclusion is made about the need for government decisions in the field of education and employment in order to reduce the digital divide, balance the labor market and create digital capital.
