According to accounting records, preliminary regular studies of the public, socio-cultural, and servicing institutions show that there will be about 5,480 vacancies of which 1,430 must be filled by men (with consequent female vacancies at 4,050).
Of the 1,430 men, 14% of single men will be drawn in from the outside, i.e., 200, and 1,230 married.
Family coefficient 3.8 | 4,674 persons |
Single | 200 persons |
Total | 4,874 persons |
---|
| Of the total population | Of that number—independent | Of that number—dependents |
---|---|---|---|
Connected with production | 28,412 persons | 8,384 | 20,028 |
Connected with services | 4,874 persons | 1,430 | 3,444 |
Total | 9,814 | 23,472 |
But there were 11,401 vacancies, 8,384 were hired in connection with production, leaving 3,017
But there were 5,480 vacancies, 1,430 were hired in connection with service, leaving 4,050
Total 16,881 | [minus those hired:] 9,814 | [, leaving] 7,067 |
Available vacancies to the number 7,067 must be taken up by dependents.
Therefore we have the following population structure:
total 33,286, | independent 16,881, | dependent 16,405 |
According to TsSU figures, the composition of the families of metal workers and service personnel, by age:
| Single | Heads of Families | Members of the Family up to Age 16 | 16–59 | 60 or Older |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Working men | 893 | 6,084 | 7,398 | 8,250 | 1,387 |
Working women | 90 | 229 | 260 | 225 | 29 |
Service men | 125 | 770 | 878 | 1,132 | 146 |
Service women | 86 | 147 | 122 | 168 | 33 |
Assistance men | 200 | 1,230 | 1,392 | 1,838 | 234 |
Total | 1,354 | 8,460 | 10,040 | 11,603 | 1,729 |
Overall number……………… 33,286 persons
Transferring the dependent population within the age group 16–59 (11,603 persons), into available vacancies (7,067), we will have an excess of 4,536 people of which only about one thousand will be occupied with servicing of the housing; the youngest group (16–19) will be freed from work for study in the mining technical school (440 persons) and the 10-year school (500 persons); we must allow 3% unemployable for various reasons (illness, etc.)—about one thousand persons.
There is a remaining reserve of 1,496 of unused labor force, the labor of whom could be organized in craft-industry cooperatives and workshops, on the nearby state farms [sovkhozy], family garden allotments [ogoroda], etc.
All the figures are based on maximum coefficients. Thus, the quantity of single persons could be increased, which would lower the population by about 1,000–1,500 persons; the female composition of the population occupied in production could be raised by 500, which would further decrease the population by 1,500, etc.
