Title: THE LIVING STANDARDS OF THE POPULATION OF THE RF
Abstract: The slowdown of the population’s income growth rate that had started in the first half year of 2013 continued through January 2014. Due to the implementation of measures designed to raise the salary level in the budget-funded sphere in accordance with the President of the Russian Federation’s Executive Order of 7 May 2012, No 597 ‘On Measures Aimed at the Implementation of Government Social Policy’, the highest growth rate in 2013 was displayed by salaries in the spheres of education, healthcare and social services. In 2013, the planned salary levels were practically achieved for certain categories of employees in the budget-funded sphere; however, the salary levels in municipal institutions are still below the planned targets.
