Questions revealing the concept content of employment instability, its real forms and socio-economic consequences for employees are considered. Methods of statistical and sociological data analysis are applied. Indicators to measure the scope and level of employment instability of employees are calculated. The dynamics in the time of the size of employment instability in Russia are analyzed. The obtained results can be applied within national economic and social policy. The findings indicate that employment instability is high, and it threatens socio-economic position of the great number of employees in Russia.

Impact of employment instability on socio-economic position of employees

Global environment and ecology are rapidly becoming the demanding subjects of discussions necessitating decision and action in the required direction as the environmental problems have emerged due to exploitation of natural resources for want of basic needs and so called the developmental measures. The developed and the developing countries share the environmental concerns alike which have their roots in societal, economical and ecological bases. Therefore, Sustainable Development is grounded on four independent systems such as bio-physical, economic, social and political. It supports interrelated principles such as peace, equity, democracy, appropriate development and conservation for sustainable living. Education has been acknowledged worldwide as a fundamental tool and one of the major means of sustaining the resources and its judicious utility, so that the earth resources could be protected for future generations. Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is an emerging concept that seeks to empower people of all ages in the world to assume responsibility for creating a sustainable future. The role of education is the major determinant in increasing creativity, rationality, problem-solving abilities, critical and analytical mindedness needed to foster the increasingly complex cultural, social and technological decisions involved in sustainable development. This paper examines some of the above critical concerns and issues related to sustainable development. It highlights the need for an interdisciplinary and a holistic approach to ESD in school education which is value driven, future and action oriented in nature. It attempts to discuss an across-the-curriculum approach to education for a sustainable future and the pedagogic concerns required to examine the local as well as global issues related to sustainable development.
