The goal of this study is to analyze the features of the OECD labor markets’ recovery in the post-Covid period, evaluate various national strategies for overcoming the negative consequences of the coronavirus crisis in the field of employment, and assess public policy measures after the end of the acute phase of the pandemic in comparison with previous crises. To analyze the situation on the labour market in OECD countries in the post-pandemic period, the author used data from international statistical organizations, primarily the International Labour Organization, OECD and Eurostat, and publications of national statistical agencies.

A comparative analysis of employment policies in OECD countries at the stage of post-Covid economic recovery allowed us to come to the conclusion that, firstly, measures aimed at maintaining support for affected industries and population groups were continued, and secondly, policies on resolving structural issues in the labour market, including strengthening labour mobility, restoring and expanding the system of professional retraining, and increasing the efficiency of the public employment service, were activated.
