abstract: 'Unresolved problems of social and economic development of Ukraine,

  exacerbated by critical negative consequences of military aggression and

  political instability, are accompanied by deep socio-economic

  contradictions and aggravation of large-scale social problems. At the

  same time, the qualitative system of social security, characteristic of

  the EU, is not formed. As a result, negative phenomena and trends are

  accumulated in social sphere there that manifest themselves in the

  critical deformations of social development, with the formation of

  threats of degradation and depopulation, the increase of environmental

  problems, deterioration of social structure, weakening of social

  guarantees of human rights that are evidenced and confirmed by mass and

  active labour migration of the Ukrainians abroad. Ensuring Ukraine''s

  social security objectively requires an in-depth study based on a

  systematic approach, applying EU principles, provisions, practices, and

  standards. The purpose is to substantiate approaches and means of

  convergence of social security of Ukraine and the EU and develop

  recommendations for the improvement of migration policy. Methodology. As

  the methodological basis of the study, theories of socio-economic

  growth, modern concepts of institutional and structural economic reforms

  have been worked out, methods of statistical, structural-functional, and

  system analysis, grouping have been applied. Results. The imbalances of

  social security of Ukraine and the EU have been determined according to

  the following components: labour market and employment of population;

  reproduction of population and labour potential of the state; migration

  and food security. Areas of accelerated asymmetry increase in the social

  development of Ukraine and the EU, which serve as a key factor in

  ``pushing out{''''}the population and high rates of labour migration from

  Ukraine to the EU Member States, have been identified. Strategic

  approaches and means of equalizing critical deformations and convergence

  of the system of social security of Ukraine in the process of

  integration into the EU have been determined; tools for improving the

  state migration policy have been developed, which implementation would

  result in improvement of the systemic and structural characteristics of

  labour potential migration. Conclusion. The study results obtained

  represent the existence of significant disparities in key indicators and

  components of the social security system of Ukraine and the EU. Low

  level of living standards and social protection of population serves as

  a factor in increasing the scope of external labour migration and,

  correspondingly, a critical weakening of human and labour potential of

  the state. Tools and means of the state policy of convergence of the

  social security system of Ukraine and the EU should focus on achieving

  the goal of systemic development of human capital and be implemented in

  the following directions: ensuring demographic security, upgrading

  health care system, renovating the quality of education, preserving

  cultural values, establishing a competitive labour market, improving

  housing affordability, social infrastructure development, systemic

  social insurance of population.'
