Annotation. The research topic is directly connected with the solution of the nationwide issues of the social and labor policy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, based on the globalization and regional processes in the world, the experience of its implementation in the regions and, first of all, in the Eurasian Economic Union member-states. Another important factor is the comparative consideration of social policy and labor potential of Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan taking into account national and common interests. At the present stage, the issues of illegal labor migration and human trafficking in our country are given special attention.

This article discusses the main possible directions for coordinating the tax policy of member countries of economic and monetary unions. The regulatory role of tax instruments in regional integration associations is assessed. The relevance of the article is due to the fact that with the accelera tion of integration processes in various regions of the world, fiscal policy becomes particularly important. Therefore, the research of representatives of various scientific schools pays much attention to the analysis of the impact of the fiscal component on the economies of the member countries of the associations. At the same time, approaches to the organization of taxation within economic unions differ significantly. The activation of integration processes in the Eurasian Economic Union (EEU) necessitates the convergence of the legislation of the member States in the field of taxation. At the same time, the harmonization and unification of legislation on indirect taxes is particularly relevant, since these taxes have a significant impact on price formatio n and provide a significant part of budget revenues. According to the authors of the article, in the conditions of deepening integration in the EEU, a well-thought-out distribution of powers in the field of tax regulation between state and supranational bodies that ensure a consistent convergence of the tax systems of the participating countries, taking into account the economic situation and the interests of all members of the Association, becomes particularly relevant. Measures to ensure the elimination of double taxation within the Union are proposed. The authors conclude that it is necessary to harmonize the tax policies of the member States of the Eurasian Union. At the same time, the harmonization of taxation in the countries of the Union should become a condition for the formation of a currency zone on the territory of the EAEU.

The article analyzes the state and problems of cluster development in the real sector of the region based on the materials of the Pavlodar region. The main problem of innovative development of the Pavlodar region, as well as in all regions of Kazakhstan, in general, is the lack of innovative activity of enterprises, which is reflected in the volume, frequency and efficiency of their innovations. At the same time, most of the enterprises belonging to the real sector of the economy have sufficient resources for the development of innovative activity. However, the prospects for their interaction with enterprises in other sectors and sectors of the economy for the purpose of technology transfer are insignificant, which, in general, doesn’t meet the principles of balanced spatial development of the territory formulated by the program for the development of territories of the Republic of Kazakhstan until 2020. One of the ways to solve this problem is formation and development of a cluster approach and interaction of business entities. The article assesses the efficiency of the cluster’s functioning as an institution of regional development. On the example of the metallurgical cluster of Pavlodar region, the main ways and methods of forming cluster initiatives in the regional economy are considered, a SWOT analysis of the development of the metallurgical cluster of the region is given, and its main problems are identified; identifies priority directions of clusters’ development (metallurgical cluster, including the production of final products, the cluster of railway engineering, agri-food cluster), the realization of which in the region could create the conditions for the emergence and full development of a number of new highly specialized sectors such as cluster chemistry, cluster of road and construction machinery, transport logistics cluster, cluster of modern production technologies and engineering, cluster of manufacturing components for machinery and equipment and cluster of industrial electrical engineering and equipment for power engineering. The authors also noted that the realization of regional development strategies of cluster initiatives can potentially lay the foundations for clusters “future days”, such as: cluster of resource efficiency and environmentally processing, the cluster of new energy, the cluster of innovative medicine, tourism and recreational cluster.

The study of the linguistic landscape of cities is currently one of the actively developing areas of modern linguistics. The linguistic landscape is considered in the article as an object of sociolinguistic research; the subject of these studies is the language of the city, its representation in the public communicative environment in the form of signs, inscriptions, advertising billboards and other visual forms of written language demonstration. The main methods of studying the language of the city are observation and analysis; the purpose of the study is to identify the means and ways of personal expression, and as a result, their recording in the linguistic space of the city. Self-expression of a person in the communicative environment of the city happens with the use of more and more non-trivial ways and linguistic and extralinguistic means in order to attract the attention of a certain target audience, a potential consumer of a product or service. The study of the linguistic landscapes of the city pursues the goal of understanding public multilingualism from the standpoint of the choice of a language, languages hierarchy, the phenomenon of language contacts, and the regulation of the written recording of languages. The linguistic landscape is, therefore, a kind of indicator of the language policy of society in relation to the languages of the peoples living in a given territory. The authors conclude that it is the linguistic landscape that is the most expressive and convincing indicator of linguistic diversity in a particular area. It is symbolic and can serve as a certain indicator of the mood of certain groups in society and regions. The degree and density of the presence of the particular language in the linguistic landscape is always an indicator of the significance, strength, and relevance of a language in society.

Annotation Main problem:The main idea of this study is the development of proposals for improving the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan, as well as the regulatory framework of the Eurasian Economic Union, taking into account the experience of the EuropeanUnion countries (as the largest integration association), towards the further development of the legal framework for cooperation in the social-labor sphere, as well as improving the integration and migration policy of the Eurasian Economic Union countries in general, and the Republic of Kazakhstan, in particular. In addition, this study intends to develop practical recommendations aimed at improving the activities of the law enforcement agencies of the Republic of Kazakhstan, as well as the EAEU countries, in the field of combating illegal migration and forced labor on the territory of this integration association. Moreover, this project suggests the legal promotion of the results obtained, both on the territory of the EAEU and beyond. Purpose: The aim of the study. To develop proposals for improving the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the EAEU countries in the field of legal regulation of labour migration and counteracting its negative consequences such as illegal migration, forced labour in the territory of this integration association. Methods: The methodological basis of the study is made up of traditional general scientific and special legal methods used in comparative jurisprudence: system-structural, historical-legal, social-legal and comparative-legal. Results and their significance:All of the above testifies to the relevance and necessity of research in the framework of this study, since its implementation, taking into account the expected results, will further improve the regulatory framework in the field of combating illegal migration, human trafficking and other illegal manifestations resulting from insufficient regulation of the labour migration sphere.

Main problem: The literature on regional entrepreneurship tends to neglect interregional human capital flows, and yet spatial mobility provides emerging entrepreneurs with knowledge and networks in different locations to exploit entrepreneurial opportunities. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to establish the relationship between mobility and entrepreneurship. Methods: Examined how multidisciplinary experience and non-local knowledge provide migrants with the desire for opportunity-based entrepreneurship. The connection between the regional environment and entrepreneurial motives based on opportunities for people with and without spatial mobility is shown. The analysis of data from a survey of labor force dynamics is presented, which compares the characteristics and driving forces of entrepreneurial motives of migrants and local residents. A survey has been conducted that indicates a higher prevalence of opportunity-based entrepreneurship among migrant entrepreneurs compared to their local counterparts. Official Kazakh statistics do not take into account the impact of internal migrants on the development of the economy and welfare of the region to which they moved. Results and their relevance: Based on the analysis and survey, it was found that the experience of spatial mobility significantly increases the likelihood of entering an opportunity-based business. The regional environment influences the entrepreneurial motives of migrants and non-migrants, but in different ways. Local entrepreneurs are more affected by the endogenous nature of the firm, while migrant entrepreneurs start businesses based on both local needs and external linkages with wider market areas. The regional environment influences the entrepreneurial motives of migrants and non-migrants, but the experience of spatial mobility significantly increases the likelihood of starting a business based on the opportunities of migrants.

The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has brought about a new economic reality, to which every economic entity must adapt, regardless of the scale: within a region, a country, or the whole world. The article examines the regional economic mechanism in the context of the pandemic in the context of the interaction of the market mechanism of self-development and the control influence of the regional authorities. The destabilization of the economic situation in the regions as a result of the pandemic and related restrictions poses the problem of revising the main directions of regional policy To achieve the set goals and objectives, the general methods of empirical and theoretical research were used: analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, generalization, description. Three spheres play a key role in the economy of Pavlodar region: industry, trade and transport. Just how to remain positive dynamics in terms of industrial production and maintained the services will depend on the development of the region, the main indicators which are discussed in this article through the prism of the events in the context of the pandemic. The necessary health measures taken in response to the pandemic have led to a severe reduction in mobility and are accompanied by high economic costs. The quarantine measures have had a direct impact on businesses, especially microbusinesses. To support this sector, tax incentives were provided, lending was expanded, and measures were taken to further facilitate the business environment. The article reflects only a small list of issues that required changes in the economic mechanism in the context of the pandemic and the introduction of restrictive measures, as well as the strengthening of the influence of external control on the economy. At the same time, the state as whole and individual regions, taking into account their potential and the actual situation in the economy, need to find an optimal balance between the prohibitions and restrictions imposed to ensure the safety of human health and the preservation of the economy in a functional mode, work and income of employees. This problem of finding a balance between prohibitive and permissive measures requires further analysis. At the same time, the state needs to develop and apply tools of a systematic nature, focused on the long term.

One of these tools in the development of the information and communication sector of the Republic of Kazakhstan is the state program “Digital Kazakhstan”. The development of the market is accompanied by the emergence of new players in it from the technology sector, and as a result, increase of the competition for consumer through the expansion of the range of services, improving their quality and pricing policy. As a result of competition, a pool of leading operators has been formed in the sphere of telecommunications services in the republic, whose activity already go beyond the national framework. At the same time, the infrastructure of the industry, which is characterized by the dominance of analog data transmission system and the underdevelopment of digital and satellite infrastructure, still needs to be improved. Taking into account the forecasts of rapid growth in the near future in the global market of mobile telecommunications services, this will require both from operators and from the state, in general, modernization of the existing telecommunications infrastructure, as one of the important factors of Kazakhstan’s entry into the global information space.

The article presents the results of implementing a quality management system at the enterprise. The study and analysis of the international standard ISO 9001:2015, as well as sanitary and epidemiological requirements for production control were carried out. The main requirements and rules for the implementation of input, operational and output control of products at enterprises at all stages of the product life cycle were identified and presented. In addition, it was determined what requirements must be met by enterprises to implement a quality management system. It is important to note that this work is necessary at the enterprise, as it has the following advantages: by improving product quality, product sales increase, the level of management of the enterprise and personnel increases, and cost savings are realized at the stages of development, production and operation. It follows that to implement a quality management system, it is necessary to set the following tasks: describe the company's processes, develop performance criteria and evaluate processes, develop the necessary documented information, implement documentation in all departments, familiarize them with the quality policy and goals, conduct timely internal audits for further SWOT analysis, and conduct an assessment by an external auditor in order to obtain a certificate of compliance. An important step in quality management is that the organization should not eliminate nonconforming results of processes, but should identify potential nonconformities, assess the risk with the preparation of a Protocol, plan and implement actions to reduce risks. Difficulties may arise: lack of understanding by the staff of the need to implement a quality management system, lack of a clear vision, mission, lack of complete information on processes, lack of quantitative and qualitative evaluation criteria, quality is defined as the quality of products, not as the quality of processes, resources, lack of monitoring of customer satisfaction. It is possible to overcome these difficulties only with the implementation of the quality management system according to ISO 9001, since the requirements prescribed in the international standard are a real tool for improving the efficiency of the enterprise, which will help bring the organization to a higher level of development.

Main problem: Today, the opinion about inclusion as the most progressive (in comparison with integration) approach is being strengthened among the society, which allows any child, regardless of the type and severity of the disorder, to learn with their normatively developing peers. The introduction of inclusive approaches into school practice can be called one of the top priorities of the state educational policy of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Inclusive education will help to resolve the contradiction between the legally guaranteed rights of children with disabilities to equal access to quality education and the de facto inequality in its implementation. Inclusion must be systematic and focused, not spontaneous. Therefore, it is optimal to teach a child with disabilities within the framework of the system of continuous general education. The creation and effective functioning of this system is impossible without a trained teacher, who is a key figure in the implementation of inclusive education. Purpose: Substantiation and disclosure of the contradiction between the guaranteed right of children with IAD and equal access to quality education for the socialization of children with special educational needs in inclusive education. Methods: in the course of the research, descriptive, systematization and analytical methods were used in the application of theoretical concepts, government programs, and legislative acts in inclusive education. Results and their importance: The implementation of the research goal is facilitated by the use of an alternative to the classroom-based organization of the educational process for the progressive development of children with IAD, which allows them to study harmoniously, regardless of the type and severity of the violation, together with their normatively developing peers. The given pedagogical observation is the obtained practical result of this study. The development of the system of class-based organization of the educational process for children with IAD in educational institutions is aimed at forming an effective system for ensuring the comprehensive development of inclusive education.

Main problem: One of the officially recognized problems of the system of state planning and regional development is imperfection of the methodology for assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of the implementation of the activities of state bodies. In fact, there is no assessment of economic and social efficiency and an assessment of the impact on society. In this regard, the authors have developed methodological approaches to assessing the quality (effectiveness) of state programs (on the example of the program of the Republic of Kazakhstan “Employment Roadmap – 2020”) is urgent task for theory and practice of regional development. The purpose of the research is the investigation of the methodological foundations for evaluating the quality of implementation of state programs of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the field of employment (based on the materials of program of the Republic of Kazakhstan “Employment Roadmap 2020”). Methods: The article uses a systematic approach to solving problems that ensures the unity of qualitative and quantitative methods: qualitative content analysis; a monographic method; the method of economic and statistical research. Results and their value: The value of the study lies in the fact that methodological approaches to the evaluation of programs in the public administration system are identified. For an economic assessment involving the calculation and analysis of unit costs per program participant, the authors propose to conduct dynamic and comparative analysis of the values of unit costs for achieving final results in directions of“DKZ-2020” program. This will allow to compare individual projects and program areas by costs in dynamics and further to identify those factors that work for their unjustified growth. The calculation of presented indicators is also important in regional context, since it allows considering those regions that significantly deviate from the national values in one direction or another

The main problem: This article is devoted to the key problems of the fuel and energy complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan: 1) lack of production capacity to meet the growing demand for energy and fuel from the economy and the population. Increased demand for electricity and heat, which will require the commissioning of new generating capacities.There is already a shortage in the fuel markets. Modernization and bringing the existing oil refineries (hereinafter referred to as refineries) to full capacity will not allow providing the domestic market until 2030; 2) the export orientation of raw materials, the dependence of the economy on the export of energy resources. In order to attract technology and investment in the oil and gas and nuclear industries, agreements on the extraction of energy resources were concluded with international export companies. In the medium term, Kazakhstan may face a shortage of oil for domestic refineries, if measures are not taken to stimulate its refining within the country. The uranium mined is fully exported; 3) high energy intensity of the economy, low level of energy efficiency. There is a high potential for increasing the efficiency of energy use both in the electric power industry and fuel production, and at the level of final consumption – in industry and housing and communal services; 4) decrease in the replenishment and quality of the resource base in the oil and gas, coal and nuclear industries; 5) low environmental friendliness of technologies used in the fuel and energy complex. Purpose: The purpose of the article is to reveal the problem in the field of ensuring the fulfillment of international obligations between different countries and their own energy sufficiency by gradually changing the structure of energy production. Methods: Studying the experience of increasing the efficiency of the use of energy resources and energy saving as a priority of the state policy of the country. Analysis of production capacity with a constantly forecasted shortage of primary energy resources and insufficient growth of capacity for the production of electricity and heat. Consideration of the possibility of compensating for the shortage by saving energy resources, increasing tariffs for energy carriers, as a stimulating factor for their effective use. Results and their significance: The results of this article will reflect the problems of energy, as the most important driving force of global economic progress. The well-being of the people depends on the state of the country's energy sector, therefore there is an urgent need to solve the emerging problems. The global energy problem is, first of all, the issue of stable and efficient supply of fuel and energy to mankind. Today, the energy sector of Kazakhstan is focused on fuel resources, since the country is provided with hydrocarbons and other energy resources. About 72 % of electricity in Kazakhstan is generated from coal, 12,3 % from hydro resources, 10,6 % from gas and 4,9 % from oil. Thus, the four main types of power plants generate 99,8 % of electricity, while alternative sources account for less than 0,2 %.

The specifics of the management of healthcare institutions are due to the fact that healthcare is a special field of activity that differs significantly from other types of activities. One of the most important management tasks in the field of public health protection is the achievement of targets: improving the quality and accessibility of medical care through the effective use of limited financial, material, labor and other health resources in conditions of rapidly growing competition in the medical services market. The purpose - is to review and summarize the domestic and foreign experience of management in health care. The article emphasizes that the serious institutional transformations taking place in the domestic healthcare system in recent years are aimed at improving the quality of medical services in the implementation of the state guarantees program, at switching to a single-channel model of financing medical care, at introducing the principles of result-oriented budgeting into the activities of socially oriented organizations providing socially significant services. The practical implementation of the above innovations requires a revision of the concept of management in the field of healthcare, the priority areas of which correspond to the best world practice. The preservation of the health of the nation is a strategic guideline of state regulation in the field of healthcare, which determines the targets of state policy. When writing the article, traditional methods (comparison, description, measurement), general logical methods and research techniques (analysis, generalization, etc.) were used. The article discusses the main theoretical foundations and organizational and economic mechanisms of the healthcare management system in market conditions. The author notes that effective healthcare is a significant factor stabilizing the socio-political situation at all the above-mentioned early stages of the reform. Therefore, studies of economic relations in healthcare in the transition period, the role of innovation policy in the management of healthcare institutions are becoming relevant. At the same time, issues of the effectiveness of the functioning of healthcare institutions are of particular importance, which are ultimately determined by the creation of socio-economic, scientific, technical, organizational and economic prerequisites for the progressive development of productive forces using the achievements of scientific and technological progress, the latest medical technologies.

The tax system, as an integral area of the economic direction of state policy, urgently requires such construction and development that will be directly related to those main vectors of the state policy of socio-economic development, which will help ensure a sufficient amount of tax revenues to the budgets of different levels. In many countries around the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to a significant deterioration in the state of public finances. Containment measures, increased government spending, and reduced tax revenues have led to an increase in the budget deficit and public debt, which as a percentage of GDP has reached its highest level in several decades. Restoring public finances is a priority for all countries for many years to come. At present, in the Republic of Kazakhstan, it became necessary to develop a single document, the basis of which should be a system of indicators that determine the trends in the development of the macroeconomic situation in the region, as well as the influence of sectoral and regional factors of the current structure of financial flows on the state of the tax base and the prospects for its development. Purpose of the article is a substantiation of the role of the tax passport in assessing the tax potential of the region in modern conditions. The tax passport of the region should be considered as a document that allows assessing the existing tax base of the region, the level of the tax burden in the context of certain types of taxes in dynamics, by industry, as well as developing a forecast for the receipt of taxes and fees for the future, both under the current legislation and taking into account its possible change. When writing the article, the dialectical method of cognition, the methods of scientific generalization and classification, the method of systemic and comparative analysis were used. The introduction of tax passports will mean the beginning of a qualitatively new system of tax collection, corresponding to market conditions and the scale of the revival of the economy, that will contribute to a change in the tasks of the tax service (there is a need to predict the volume of tax revenues in the medium term, develop new concepts in the field of taxation that contribute to the development of business without prejudice social programs, substantiation of tax programs to ensure protectionist policy in the field of foreign economic activity).

In the implementation of social policy, the most common practice in foreign countries is the payment of a part of the cost of the service by the recipients of social services. However, this decision raises some doubts. After all, these services are for members of the public who are unable to take care of themselves and generally cannot earn a living. On the other hand, when the state bears the costs, there is a risk of overconsumption. The decision on the extent to which a beneficiary of a social care service should share in the costs of social services depends on a variety of factors: criteria for social justice in the country and perceptions of social justice (for example, public opinion about whether unpaid social care services should be provided to all or only the poor), from a group of people in need of social care (social care services for children from social risk groups, especially for people with severe disabilities, are usually free of charge), from the economic ability of the state to provide free social services, etc. The purpose is to study the positive foreign experience in the provision of social services in modern conditions. Determine the role of the state as the dominant body in the implementation of social policy. The study is based on the principles of a systematic approach. Also, when writing the article, the dialectical method of cognition, the methods of scientific generalization and classification, the method of comparative analysis were used. Systematization and generalization of foreign experience in the provision of social services, taking into account the definition of its main goals and objectives, show that the changes taking place in the field of social protection in developed countries over the past two decades already indicate that the model of organizing social assistance, based on the dominance of market relations, operates in many countries. Under the hierarchical model, the organization of social services is based on a vertical division of responsibility and state functions, and the state has a monopoly on providing social care services and funding state or non-state care institutions. However, in recent decades, social assistance services have already been purchased from market participants and funded not by the state, but by the person in need of social assistance. However, such a market is not pure, since the state is involved in both the purchase and pricing of the service.

One of the management concerns of the progressive development of a modern organization is the efficiency of its HR potential. This concern is often resolved to quality issues of training graduates, inefficient labor market regulation, both at public level and regional one. These factors, external to the organization, positively impact the effectiveness of its activities, but today the government and business environment have already formed the tools to address this problem. However, there are also a number of inner concerns in HR management based on non-exact coordination and balanced HR Strategy, its orientation, goals and objectives and the company’s strategy. But only in this situation, both HR Strategy and HR Policy, more specifically, can become an effective tool for HR management as part of the company’s strategic development objectives. The purpose is to study and make a comparative analysis for supporting HR Policy of a number of major Kazakhstan companies, to analyze the relationship and coordination of companies’ HR Policy with their general strategy. We used classic methods, such as analysis, comparison, description, generalization, justification, etc., while preparing the paper and rationalizing the problem studied in it. As to this paper, based on materials of major companies of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the authors study and identify the content of HR Strategy and HR Policy as the main factors of domestic employers’ approach to HR management issues. The analysis proves the multi-vector approaches of Kazakhstan organizations to the formation and HR development. It seems also obvious that HR Policy of Kazakhstan companies has been and remains highly situational manner providing rationale to solve some or other HR problems related to dynamics of market situations and dynamics of goals and objectives for their development. The authors emphasize that the effectiveness of HR management and the HR Policy one of the organization requires a clear comprehension of the position and relevance of HR in organization. Honestly, this comprehension will be mainly governed by such factors as ownership, industry aspects, productivity levels, buoyancy rate of technologies used and the market of products or services sold by the organization. It is highly important that this comprehension is embodied properly in HR Strategy and HR Policy of the organization and is balanced with its market development strategy.

Main problem: One of the most complicated types of marketing is marketing of medical services or organizations. This can be attributed to many reasons. First of all, person’s life and health is the most important value. One more reason is that budget funds are limited, this forces us to look for extra-budgetary financing sources. At the same time, it follows that the population of the Republic of Kazakhstan, receiving free assistance for a long time, refuse paid medicine, the solvency of a large percentage of the population. Thus, marketing research of the services market is designed to identify the real market share of trade and paid medicine, to fill the need of the qualified medical care, to identify the particularity of demand in various segments and the demographic and psychographic characteristics of the population groups. Purpose: to identify current trends and develop marketing strategies in the regional market of medical services, allowing to identify and strengthen the economic foundations of the functioning of non-profit organizations in the national market. Methods: The research was conducted using traditional methods of marketing research: qualitative: in-depth interview, focus groups; quantitative: survey, as well as methods of economic analysis: comparative, graphical and scenario planning. Results and their significance: the essence of marketing in healthcare is considered, the features of marketing research are taken into account; the medical services market of Pavlodar region is analyzed and evaluated and ways of its improvement are proposed. The results of the study may be useful for the development of measures to further improve the activities of medical organizations in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The variety of species and forms of parasites of agricultural animals and the features of their life cycles are the basic foundation for the production of different types and medical forms of antiparasite medicine. In the treatment of the parasitic diseases of agricultural animals, one of the main factors is that the veterinary doctors have the knowledge on the mechanics, efficiency and the safety for humans and environment of the medicine being used. Taking into account high pathogenicity and resistance of parasitic organisms and their ability to adapt to effect of medicine, it is crucial to permanently monitor the efficiency of the applied anthelmintic drugs, including the new drugs offered by veterinary services. This article will describe the results of the research on pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic parameters of «Ivermectinum», «Ivermec», «Aversect-1», «Аvrsect-2», «Аivin» drugs and their methods of application with the consideration of terms of maintenance and immune status of cattle herds in Mayconyr village (Irtysh district, Pavlodar region). A comparative analysis of efficiency of the above mentioned drugs in dehelmintization and treatment of cattle was conducted with the results provided. The recommendations and the restrictions on use of the drugs were determined considering the farm condition. The experimental research of the aforementioned broad-spectrum drugs was conducted strictly following the rules of asepsis and instructions on application. The total number of replacement heifers subjected to the dehelmintization under the method of analogues is 150 units. Anthelmintic treatment was conducted two times a year - in springtime (March-April) before pasturage, and fall time (September-October) before confining the cattle in the stable. Coprological study on intestinal helminthes of the examined cattle was conducted in Irtysh RVL of the Pavlodar regional branch of RVE RVL VCaSC MA RK by ovoscopical, flotation and larvoscopical methods. There is a comparative analysis on the efficiency of avermectin group antiparasitic drugs applied twice a year for cattle dehelmintization. The recommendations on the use of the aforementioned drugs for dehelmentization and prevention of parasitic diseases are provided and the requirements for the use were determined.

Main problem: The key task of the development of the regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan is to ensure their sustainable socio-economic development by increasing its competitiveness and innovation activity. To develop a successful strategy, as well as for its subsequent successful implementation, it is necessary to have a clear vision and idea of what the region will be like in the near future. This vision should be clearly formulated and understood by all interested parties in order to properly coordinate efforts in achieving the set goals. In turn, based on the vision, various initiatives and activities are being formed, the implementation of which is aimed at implementing the main directions of sustainable development of the region. Purpose: to consider the main directions of the implementation of the strategy of competitive, sustainable and safe development of the region. Methods: The theoretical and methodological basis was the concepts, hypotheses and theories presented in the works of domestic and foreign researchers. The methodology is based on a systematic approach, within which methods of comparative, factorial, subject-object; structural-functional, statistical analysis and extrapolation have been applied. Results and their significance: In order to ensure the sustainable development of the Pavlodar region in the future, there is a need to form the basis for the creation of new sectors, as well as to consider opportunities to diversify the regional economy. Currently, there is a structural change in jobs, which leads to an increased role of professional services industries in the field of information technology, engineering. It should be noted that the level of development of small, medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurship in the region is at a low level, due to the predominance of resource sectors in the economy. These sectors, due to the peculiarities of the technological process, do not form a system of suppliers around themselves. However, in order to ensure the progressive development of the industrial complex in the region, it is important to create conditions for the development of SMEs in the region and, accordingly, a system of suppliers around leading manufacturing enterprises. The high competitiveness of the Pavlodar region in the future until 2030 will be ensured through the development of priority clusters, as well as through the emergence of new industrial sectors of the economy. Thus, the priority clusters of «today» include: metallurgical cluster, including the production of end products; cluster of railway engineering; agro-food cluster.

The sustainable socio-economic development of the regions is determined by a number of factors, including the implementation of an effective budget policy, which plays a special role for the performance of social functions, regulating Inter-level organizational relations, strengthening the economic and financial independence of the regions.Effective management of budget policy makes it possible to purposefully use the mechanisms of budget regulation at all levels of management. At the same time, it involves the implementation of a number of functions, of which the control function is the most important. In the system of economic relations, it is assigned to a specialized financial body – the Treasury. Topical tasks are: regulation of budget flows in the region, strengthening control over the receipt and targeted use of budget funds; improving inter-budgetary relations; increase the revenue base of budgets by increasing their collection; etc. In the process of solving these tasks, a number of managerial, organizational and methodological problems arise, the solution of which contributes to improving the effectiveness of the budget policy of the region and, as a result, its economic development. Objective - to study the regional specifics of the implementation of budget policy in terms of the formation and execution of local budgets on the example of the Pavlodar budget, identify the existing problems in the region and determine the directions for improving the budget process. The methodological basis of the study is formed by general scientific and special methods of cognition: analysis and synthesis, deduction and induction, historical, logical, structural-functional and comparative analysis, as well as individual scientific methods: statistical-economic and computational-analytical. The formation of the local budget is carried out through the application of a single methodology, a single budget legislation and orientation to the Strategic Development Plan of the Republic of Kazakhstan until 2025, developed for the implementation of the main document of the state planning system for the medium – term period-the long-term development strategy of Kazakhstan until 2050. The implementation of all the tasks set out in the strategic development plans of the Republic will begin at the level of local budgets. The solution of State tasks is guaranteed, first of all, to meet the needs of the population at the local level. The role of regions in the entire process of reproduction cannot be overestimated, so the independence, flexibility and high degree of efficiency of using budget funds at the local level is the key to the successful development of society, production and business in any territory.

Main problem: In modern science, there are a large number of techniques focused on the assessment of competitiveness through the analysis of certain resources in the region. However, accounting of human resources in such assessments is not used as a prior factor in identifying regional competitive advantages. Competitive advantages affect not only the efficiency of individual sectors of the economy but also the overall social and economic development of the country. Evaluation of the competitiveness of the region should include one of the main parameters of the human resource and economic development level. Therefore, the forecast for the competitiveness of the region should take into account the pace of human resources development. Purpose of the research is evaluation of regions’ competitiveness as the main parameter of economic development in current conditions. Methods: The methods used in Kazakhstan for assessing the competitiveness of a region considers only the assessment of human resources in its structure but do not take into account the level of their development over time, as well as the multi-factorial nature of their components. Results and their value: The work explains and analyzes rating model for assessing of the competitiveness of the regions of Kazakhstan (the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Republic of Kazakhstan). The authors proposed a methodology for ranking the regions of Kazakhstan based on an assessment of the development of their human resources that affect the competitiveness of the region. It includes an analysis of demographic, labor and social and economic indicators reflecting the state of human resources.

The article examines the emergence and functioning of the Soviet institutions of power in Kazakhstan during the period of "war communism". On the basis of archival materials and published works, the author analyzes the activities of Soviets and revolutionary committees. The purpose of the article is to study the main trends and features of the development of local government in Kazakhstan in 1918-1921. The study is based on the principles of historical, scientific objectivity and systemic structural-functional analysis. For this reason, the author used such methods as the method of historical reconstruction for the reorganization of the administration of Soviet, party and other local bodies; the method of isolation for the study of local (regional) features in relation to local phenomena and processes in the energy sector; the method of typology, which made it possible to identify and describe different types of local authorities. The authors come to the conclusion that in 1918-1921, during the period of civil resistance, "war communism" and the beginning of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, bodies of the new Soviet power appeared and operated in Kazakhstan. They are characterized as having an anti-democratic character; strict social orientation; alienation of indigenous peoples; immanent nature for creating conflict situations; choosing non-optimal ways and means of solving a problem situation; unification of party and state. As a result, an overgrown and clumsy class of party classification was formed, which was not provided for by the Constitution of the USSR.

Main problem: in Kazakhstan, it is urgent to develop measures aimed at introduction and promotion of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) at all levels of Kazakh society, in order to strengthen sustainability of socio-economic development, active participation of business in social modernization and human capital development. In this regard, there is problem of forming effective mechanism of social responsibility, as well as the implementation of principles of corporate social responsibility in management practice of domestic companies. Purpose: this study aims to determine the main stages of the development of CSR in business in Kazakhstan in the specific context the domestic business sector. Methods: methods of systematic, comparative and statistical analysis and of expert assessments were used. Expert survey, document analysis, secondary analysis of sociological research, case study method were used as empirical research methods. The analysis of documents was performed to study the legislative and regulatory frameworks that determine practices of implementing interaction between business and government in modern states. To identify and characterize models of CSR implementation, method of secondary data from a number of foreign comparative studies was applied. Case study method allowed identifying empirical cases of effective implementation of mechanisms of social public-private partnership in field of social investments by domestic business structures. Results and their significance: in the article, based on study of domestic and foreign experience, mechanism of interaction between business and government in solving problems of regional economic systems was considered. Main stages of evolution of CSR practices in Kazakhstan were identified and characterized, structural (subjects, institutions) and regulatory (legislation, strategies, programs, standards) components of interaction between business and government in solving problems of region in modern conditions are established. In addition, main differences between domestic CSR system and European model are considered, general characteristics of which are given in article.

Significant air and water pollution, which is detrimental to the health of the citizens of Kazakhstan. Courts and regulatory authorities do not properly fulfill their obligations in the framework of environmental protection. Currently, government agencies are pursuing a policy aimed at protecting the environment and the rights of citizens. Purpose of the study is to analyze international models, practices, application of management systems for the legal protection of the environment and the health of citizens with application in Kazakhstan. The article discusses and explores a number of principles and methods of environmental management. Since these principles and practices contribute to the establishment of rational and effective environmental policy and management, it is proposed to take them into account when rethinking the current system in Kazakhstan. The article analyzes models and methods of legal protection of the environment and response to damage to the health of citizens, these tools can be part of an integrated system. Based on the study, it was found that in order for environmental management to reach its full potential, Kazakhstan also needs to undertake political reforms and involve ordinary citizens in the formation of policies and protection mechanisms. The studied strategies for collecting and taking into account the opinions of people when making managerial decisions on environmental protection can be used in Kazakhstani society.

Main problem: processes of economic modernization in practical solution should reveal common understanding between institutional, legislative and industrial relations, essence of organizational transformations, formulation of basic provisions for instrumental support of independent transition of technological processes to new round of socio‑economic relations. Processes should be based on new characteristics of standardization, methodology of system functioning, technical conditions, norms, rules, instructions and regulations, which provides for institutional changes. Purpose: to explore new trends in digital transformation of the world economy, as well as to show that tasks and settings of vector of technological processes of digital economy go far beyond known principles of economic development, joining the mainstream of global trends. Methods: theoretical and methodological basis was concepts, hypotheses and theories presented in works of domestic and foreign researchers. The methodology is based on systematic approach, in which methods of comparative, factorial, subject-object, structural-functional, statistical, correlation analysis and extrapolation were applied. Results and their significance: analytical review of theoretical approaches of foreign economists on this problem was carried out, which allowed author to identify theoretical, methodological and applied foundations for determining directions within framework of state strategy for planning socio-economic development. Scientific discussion on conditions for changing model of economic development, modernization of economy with transition to first and second generation platforms, hereinafter referred to as ecosystems, is evaluated. The fundamental differences between theoretical argumentation of proponents of promoted digital technologies and their opponents are determined. Positions of argumentation of impact on change of driving factors are analyzed in order to adjust methods of state policy and choice of vector of technological processes. The question of correlation of macroeconomic theory in evolutionary sense, which goes beyond known principles of economic thought of digital transformation, is considered.

Main problem: rapidly changing trends in development of economies of countries require a rational approach to state regulation of innovative activity and investments directed to organization of real sector of the economy. At the same time, for analysis of modern state policy in the system of innovative development, it is necessary to assess the effectiveness of state regulation mechanisms of innovative activity in the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Purpose: to assess mechanisms of state regulation of innovative activity in the Republic of Kazakhstan in the global competitiveness system. Methods: synthesis, content analysis, accommodation, monographic method, factor analysis, economic and statistical research method. Results and their significance: the assessment of the mechanisms of state regulation of innovative activity in the Republic of Kazakhstan in the global competitiveness system allowed to fully assessing effectiveness of mechanisms of state regulation of innovative activity in the economy. Examining the sub-indices of international rating of the World Economic Forum for 2021-2022 in relation to 2017-2018, the authors came to conclusion that in Kazakhstan today there is the decrease in all the sub-indices of rating and their factors (“basic requirements” and “business complexity”), with exception of “innovation” sub-index. This sub-index was significantly reduced due to a sharp deterioration in macroeconomic environment, which is directly related, according to the authors, to significant losses in oil export revenues. This, in turn, affected the deterioration of the state budget indicators. The article pays special attention to place and role of state regulation of innovative activity in the socio-economic policy of the country. Organizational and methodological problems in development and implementation of innovative policy in the Republic of Kazakhstan are researched in detail, which makes it necessary to solve them in order to achieve the effectiveness of innovative policy at the regional and national levels.

Main problem: achievement of socio-economic sustainability in each locality depends on coordinated actions of executive and representative authorities, which should be focused on creating appropriate conditions for ensuring social standards and improving quality of life of rural population, as well as the development of main economic basis – agricultural production. In this context, in today’s reality, the urgent problem of sustainable development of rural settlements is provision of appropriate industrial and social infrastructure, because systemic development of rural regions depends on this rural infrastructure, which acts as an element of territorial socio-economic subsystem. Purpose: identification and studying of key factors that determines and contributes to balanced development of industrial and social infrastructure of rural regions of country in context of sustainable development goals and objectives.

In recent years, the Republic of Kazakhstan has maintained an ambiguous criminal situation, and there is an increase in certain types of crimes, against the background of the overall positive dynamics of decline. Special attention of criminologists has recently been attracted to the study of crimes in the family and household sphere, and crimes committed in the sphere of religious and spiritual relations, since both of these types are showing increasing prevalence. Therefore, considering such an important institution as a «voluntary refusal», it would be advisable to consider them from the perspective of the offenses we have named, especially since countering them is one of the main directions of state criminal policy. In general, the study of the institution of voluntary refusal to commit an offense is based not only on coercive measures, but also on incentive measures, which means the opportunity to correct the behavior of the offender until the end of the illegal act. The purpose of this scientific article is to study the features of voluntary refusal to commit a criminal offense in crimes committed in the sphere of religious, spiritual and family-household relations, taking into account practice and making recommendations for improving regulations of a criminal nature. The leading methodological tools of the scientific article are dialectical, phenomenological, synergetic and systematic approaches of scientific cognition. Before proceeding to the analysis of the concept of voluntary refusal, it should be noted that the norms about it are far from perfect. There is no unambiguous understanding of the signs of voluntary refusal among scientists, which complicates law enforcement practice. One of the most important tasks of any scientific research is the development of scientific concepts. The consolidation of such concepts in legislation is an effective way to establish a uniform understanding of the norms, a clear idea of their content and, as a result, an increase in the effectiveness of the impact of criminal law in the process of legal regulation. However, these concepts themselves do not reflect reality like contemplation or representation, they are closer to the essence of the phenomenon. The article concludes that the essential features of the concept itself somewhat narrow the objective reality. But, at the same time, the correct identification of the main features in the concept is an important task of scientific research.

In this article, comprehensive studies have been conducted on the rational use of natural pastures, taking into account the seasons and typology, which allows increasing the grazing capacity of forage lands, as well as obtaining high-grade valuable and cheap livestock products. Rational maintenance of livestock on pastures not only reduces fuel costs by 6-7 times, equipment, labor and total feed costs by 2-3 times compared to the content of grazed animals, but also improves metabolic processes and reproductive functions of animals. This determines the great advantage of pasture feeding in the production of important livestock products. In the conditions of vertical zonality of the Zhambyl region, a significant reserve for increasing the production of mutton is their grazing on pasture with the use of pasture turnover; which allows the most efficient use of natural forage lands, increase the live weight and fatness of animals.

Main problem: one of the officially recognized problems of the system of state planning and regional development is imperfection of the methodology for assessing the effectiveness and efficiency of the implementation of the activities of state bodies. In fact, there is no assessment of economic and social efficiency and an assessment of the impact on society. In this regard, the authors have developed methodological approaches to assessing the quality (effectiveness) of state programs (on the example of the program of the Republic of Kazakhstan “Employment Roadmap – 2020”) that is the urgent task for theory and practice of regional development. Purpose of the research is the investigation of the methodological foundations for evaluating the quality of implementation of state programs of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the field of employment (based on the materials of program of the Republic of Kazakhstan “Employment Roadmap 2020”). Methods: the article uses a systematic approach to solving problems that ensures the unity of qualitative and quantitative methods: qualitative content analysis; a monographic method; the method of economic and statistical research. Results and their significance: the value of the study lies in the fact that methodological approaches to the evaluation of programs in the public administration system are identified. For an economic assessment involving the calculation and analysis of unit costs per program participant, the authors propose to conduct dynamic and comparative analysis of the values of unit costs for achieving final results in directions of “DKZ-2020” program. This will allow to compare individual projects and program areas by costs in dynamics and further to identify those factors that work for their unjustified growth. The calculation of presented indicators is also important in regional context, since it allows considering those.

Main problem: in Kazakhstan, the Government is reviewing its environmental and health management system to identify opportunities for improvement. Kazakhstan suffers from a high level of emissions into the environment and related health problems of the population. The link between environmental pollution and public health has been established for a long time. In Kazakhstan, air pollution, water pollution and soil and groundwater pollution are the main causes of widespread health problems and diseases, including, but not limited to, lung diseases and certain cancers. Recognizing these problems, the Kazakh Government is trying to strengthen environmental protection and environmental management system. Purpose: the purpose of the study was to analyze international models, practices, application of management systems for the legal protection of the environment and the health of citizens with application in Kazakhstan. Methods: the article discusses and explores a number of principles and methods of environmental management. Since these principles and practices contribute to the establishment of rational and effective environmental policy and management, it is proposed to take them into account when rethinking the current system in Kazakhstan. The article analyzes models and methods of legal protection of the environment and response to damage to the health of citizens, these tools can be part of an integrated system. Results and their significance: based on the study, it was found that in order for environmental management to reach its full potential, Kazakhstan also needs to undertake political reforms and involve ordinary citizens in the formation of policies and protection mechanisms. The studied strategies for collecting and taking into account the opinions of people when making managerial decisions on environmental protection can be used in Kazakhstani society.

Market transformations in the Republic of Kazakhstan and in the regions have entered a phase of intensification: management systems and resource allocation have been fully improved, the institution of public-private property has been formed, the main market mechanisms of economic regulation have been put into effect. The mechanism of self-development of the market as a whole is gradually being launched, small business is becoming crucial. It is free entrepreneurship that is designed to intensify the further economic recovery in the regions of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Balanced and progressive development of small business involves the development of infrastructure that stimulates the activity of its development and requires the transformation of the mechanisms and format of integration of the sphere of small and large business, as one of the fundamental factors of balanced development of small business in the leading sectors of the economy. In the Republic of Kazakhstan, the support of the small business sector is one of the strategic priorities of its development. However, despite the measures taken by the state to provide support to small businesses, the dynamics of needs and industry-specific features of the development of the market of goods and services make their own adjustments to regional trends in the development of small business, forming an industry and structural imbalance in the development of small business, which requires consideration and clarification of their content. Purpose is to study the state and trends of small business development as a factor affecting the efficiency of the economy and social stability of the population. The analysis of small business development in the article is implemented on the basis of the information and statistical base of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the context of identifying trends and patterns of its development; identification, generalization and justification of the reasons for their formative and institutional approaches to their regulation. In particular, the analysis in the study is based on the materials of statistical reviews and their analysis using methods of grouping, generalization, logical analysis, system description and interpretation. The range of main directions and trends in the development of small entrepreneurship in the Republic of Kazakhstan has been studied and determined, their effectiveness has been assessed and tools to support the balanced development of small business have been proposed.

The development, grovth and productivity of livestock depend primarily on providing it with a variety of nutritious feeds. Daily feeds should consist of microbiologically synthesized protein, as well as a variety of seeds, mineral and vitamin supplements of animal and vegetable origin. Indeed, the maximum disclosure of the genetic potential of livestock largely depends on both the quantity and quality of feed. One of the stages of feed quality assessment is the measurement of their chemical composition. The chemical composition is not always constant and depends on many factors, including the species composition of plants, fertilizer application rates, climatic conditions and storage methods. The least accumulation of moisture in the soil was observed in areas where pasture grasses were regularly treated with wormwood. Pacture productivity was also the lowest in the control plots, where the average phyto-chemical composition over three years showed that the dynamics of protein content was the same in all pastures – the protein content reached a maximum at the beginning of the growing sea son and decreased from spring to autumn, while the lowest content of crude protein during harvesting in summer was in control plants of varieties

Main problem: At the present stage of life, workforce plays a special and very important role in the activities and development of any organization. Human resources need to be managed. Management itself is a process of streamlining, regulating a particular activity. Managing an organization means defining the main directions of its development, setting goals for it and contributing to their achievement. Human resources are the face of a company, a component derivative, without which its existence is impossible. Any promising and self-respecting company assigns the formation of its staff to one of the leading directions of its own policy. Currently, in the context of social and economic transformations, the management of the activities of healthcare organizations is changing significantly, and therefore it is necessary to improve personnel management approaches that contribute to improving the quality of services provided and labor productivity. Taking into account the peculiarities of personnel management of a medical institution at the present time, the issue of reforming the personnel policy of healthcare, improving the image of institutions, forming a corporate culture, developing and implementing criteria for the motivational process is acute. Solving these tasks will help managers in the personnel management process. Purpose of this article is to assess the state of human resources of organizations of the sanitary and epidemiological service in the Republic of Kazakhstan and identify the main problems in the personnel management system of the organization using the example of the activities of the State Institution “Committee for Sanitary and Epidemiological Control of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan”. Methods: The work used general scientific methods of comparative systemic, vertical and horizontal analysis, structural and functional the method, analytical techniques, economic and statistical research methods. Results and their significance: the authors have defined the human resource management system of a healthcare institution, analyzed the current personnel management system using the example of the State Institution “Committee for Sanitary and Epidemiological Control of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan”. The assessment of the state and movement of labor resources of the Sanitary and Epidemiological Control Committee was carried out. Based on the conducted research, the authors identified the main problems of human resource management of a healthcare institution and developed proposals that can be used as recommendations for further reform and development of the personnel management system in the healthcare sector.

Main problem: Rapidly changing trends in development of economies of countries require a rational approach to state regulation of innovative activity and investments directed to organization of real sector of the economy. At the same time, for analysis of modern state policy in the system of innovative development, it is necessary to assess the effectiveness of state regulation mechanisms of innovative activity in the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Purpose: to assess mechanisms of state regulation of innovative activity in the Republic of Kazakhstan in the global competitiveness system. Methods: synthesis, content analysis, accommodation, monographic method, factor analysis, economic and statistical research method. Results and their significance: The assessment of the mechanisms of state regulation of innovative activity in the Republic of Kazakhstan in the global competitiveness system allowed to fully assess effectiveness of mechanisms of state regulation of innovative activity in the economy. Examining the sub-indices of international rating of the World Economic Forum for 2021-2022 in relation to 2017-2018, the authors came to conclusion that in Kazakhstan today there is the decrease in all the sub-indices of rating and their factors (“basic requirements” and “business complexity”), with exception of “innovation” sub-index. This sub-index was significantly reduced due to a sharp deterioration in macroeconomic environment, which is directly related, according to the authors, to significant losses in oil export revenues. This, in turn, affected the deterioration of the state budget indicators. The article pays special attention to place and role of state regulation of innovative activity in the socio-economic policy of the country. Organizational and methodological problems in development and implementation of innovative policy in the Republic of Kazakhstan are researched in detail, which makes it necessary to solve them in order to achieve the effectiveness of innovative policy at the regional and national levels.

Main problem: At the present stage of life, Innovations in the financial sector contribute to the optimization of financial intermediation and, in turn, stimulate economic growth. Financial innovations increase the efficiency of the allocation of savings capital to investment capital, as well as increase liquidity in the markets. As the digital economy has developed, the functionality of traditional large financial institutions has been partially replaced by financial technologies (FinTech). FinTech involves the convergence of traditional financial services with mobile services, social media services, big data aggregation and processing, and cloud technologies. Purpose of this article is to identify the main directions of the electronic financial services market in the Republic of Kazakhstan, identify the main problems and prospects for the development of the financial sector of the economy. Methods: The work used general scientific methods of comparative system, vertical and horizontal analysis, structural and functional method, analytical techniques, economic and statistical research methods. The results and their significance: the authors identified the main directions of digitalization of the financial sector of the modern economy, noted the role of FinTech companies and services in both theoretical and practical terms, and provided relevant approaches to the definition of this concept in the economic literature. The main reasons and factors for the development of this direction of digitalization of the financial sector are substantiated, including the concept of financial accessibility, the advantages and disadvantages of FinTech, various approaches to their classification, country and regional characteristics, and an analysis of development trends. The crowdfunding direction of FinTech is noted, approaches to its definition and classification are given, the advantages of the crowdfunding mechanism are revealed, and its role in the modern economy is analyzed. The trend of algorithmic trading development as the most important direction of digitalization of the financial sector is investigated. A detailed analysis of mobile financial services as one of the fastest-growing areas of FinTech is carried out, approaches to their classification are given, factors stimulating the growth of mobile payments, country and regional characteristics are substantiated. The main directions of digitalization of the insurance sector are analyzed, reasonable conclusions about the advantages of InsurTech are made.
