Object: The object of this article is to investigate factors of temporary and part-time employment emergence in Europe to determine country characteristics and trends in their development in the post-industrial economy conditions.Methods: For the purpose of the research we have used methods of statistical grouping, analysis of dynamics, structure and variation. Statistical analysis of the variation in temporary and part-time employment in European countries is based on the coefficient of variation. We have also used data from Eurostat and the European Social Survey (ESS).Results: We have identified features and both objective and subjective factors contributing to the emergence of non-standard employment forms. We have evaluated homogeneity of the population of European countries on studied non-standard employment types: both temporary and incomplete. Based on the results obtained, the prevalence of temporary and part-time employment in Europe was determined. Based on the rating of countries by the share of non-standard types of employment in the total employment of the population, we have identified leaders and outsiders of the said rating.Conclusions: Statistical analysis has shown growth in both temporary and part-time employment; this reflects one of the trends in the evolution of labor markets in European countries. High coefficient of variation values indicate heterogeneity of European countries in the share of temporary and part-time employment. Indeed, a number of countries enjoy a significant increase and a large coverage scale. And yet there are countries where the applicability of fixed-term and incomplete contracts is quite low, and even if it sees an increase, it is a very slight one. The main reasons for heterogeneity depend on the current economic situation and the level of production development in a particular country. They also lie in differences in the applicable legal acts and measures to protect the employee rights.

“…From 2009 to 2016, it surpassed Spain in the use of temporary work, taking the leading position for this period. This may be due to the fact that Poland is the largest agricultural employer in the EU and employment in this area is seasonal (Avlijas, 2019).…”

The role of research institutes in scientific support of state strategic plans AbstractObject: Article determines the main directions and conceptual approaches of research institutions in the framework of scientific support for the methodology of strategic planning in modern conditions.Methods: The scientific abstraction method supported with information analysis and grouping.Results: This article discusses current problems and key tasks of modernizing scientific-methodological and information-analytical support for the state strategic management of socio-economic development. Main trends in the evolution of objects and subjects of management in the conditions of digital transformation of the information society are investigated. In addition, this research describes the institutional basis for building and functioning of the strategic planning system of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Also, the article presents a structural diagram of a complex of heterogeneous models of strategic planning of socio-economic development. Project solutions have been proposed to build architecture and develop a prototype computer support system for scenario modeling technology in the development of multi-level strategic solutions for the planning of socio-economic development in the emerging infrastructure of the digital economy.Conclusions: The study showed the importance and urgency of modernizing the methodological and analytical support of the strategic planning system of the Republic of Kazakhstan, considering the main consequences and requirements for the creation and dissemination of digital technologies in various spheres of society. The most important characteristics of innovative changes in the structure and content of strategic planning tasks, the solution of which relates to the unification of the format of presentation of quantitative and qualitative assessments in the digital environment have been revealed. This can improve the degree of validity and coherence of the planned decisions and regulatory measures developed by the state in the area of planning of socio-economic development and ensuring the national security of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

“…In parallel to the recent work undertaken by the ISSA (ISSA, ), an increasingly specialized international literature has emerged to address concerns and challenges associated with social security and the digital economy (for example, Avlijaš, ; Behrendt and Nguyen, ; Frota, ; OECD, ; Spasova et al, ; Weber, ). The literature reveals a degree of optimism about the beneficial internal operational impacts that digital information and communication technology (ICT) can have for the administration of social security programmes (Billig and Francis, ).…”

“…In this discussion it is also necessary to factor in uncertainty. Important structural differences are found across national labour markets, even amongst those at similar levels of development (Avlijaš, ). Therefore, in spite of global megatrends, such as demographic ageing, country context will continue to matter.…”

This special issue of the International Social Security Review considers the multidisciplinary topic of social security and the digital economy. The selected articles that comprise this issue offer a number of varying perspectives on the changing and increasingly complex environment in which social security institutions operate and critically assess not only how social security institutions are likely to be impacted but also how they may respond to the challenges foreseen. Social security institutions do not have control over external factors that can negatively impact the financing and coverage of social security programmes. Nonetheless, with the shift to the digital economy, the task at hand is to manage an unprecedented process of change. Though ensuring service continuity is the primary concern, also required are improvements in service delivery for all stakeholders and the development of responses to meet new operational challenges and emerging coverage risks. Particularly in more developed economies, the socio‐economic challenges that accompany the labour market changes associated with the transition to the digital economy are often characterized as presenting a risk of growing precarity. Regardless, the global policy goal remains one of ensuring sustainable and adequate social security protection for all.
