Abstract:

This paper investigates the phenomenon of skewness in sectoral employment in Uzbekistan, employing a panel data approach to provide a comprehensive analysis. The country’s transition from a centrally planned to a market-oriented economy since independence in 1991 has led to shifts in employment structure, impacting productivity, income distribution, and socio-economic development. Despite progress, disparities persist across industries, posing challenges to balanced sectoral development. This study addresses the research gap in analyzing skewness in sectoral employment through panel data methodology, allowing for a nuanced examination of dynamics over time and regions. The objectives are to empirically assess the skewness extent and identify contributing determinants, aiming to inform policy interventions for promoting balanced sectoral development and inclusive growth. The paper is structured to include a literature review on sectoral employment and panel data analysis, followed by a methodology outlining data collection and empirical strategy. Results and analysis sections present findings, culminating in implications, limitations, and recommendations for future research. Through its rigorous analysis, this study contributes to understanding sectoral employment dynamics and provides insights for policymakers to address economic disparities in Uzbekistan.
