abstract: 'The issue of social inequality has always been a focus of sociological

  knowledge. Meanwhile, extensive discussions about new forms of

  inequality and social participation were driven by changes in the late

  twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. As a result, the topic of

  ``precarity{''''} has become more relevant in recent times. The reasons

  for this interest are the growing tensions in labor markets and problems

  of employment systems in various countries. The purpose of this article

  is to study the precarious opportunities for employees in the context of

  an analysis of their self-assessments of the risks of job losses and

  future labor incomes, as well as to compare this self-perception between

  those employed in Russia and Germany. The aim of the comparative

  analysis is the identification of social factors of the precarious

  employment in market economies, and to achieve an understanding of the

  degree of social inequality from the point of employment participation

  in Russia. The article starts with an examination of the theoretical

  foundations. These foundations are a modern interpretation of the

  sociological theory of the social structure of society, the development

  of resources, and actor theories. The model of the subjective perception

  of inequality A. Hense is under consideration. In the model, the

  conceptual provisions of methodological individualism of S. Lindenberg

  and P. Burdieu''s methodological relativism are integrated. The data of

  the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey - Higher School of Economics

  (RLMS-HSE) and German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) were used for

  multivariate analysis. Determinants (production, legal, contextual) were

  studied using generalized ordered probit models with random effects. As

  a result, the authors conclude that the precariousness of employment and

  incomes in Russia captures a large proportion of wage earners and is

  fixed throughout the observation period. A higher level of education

  weakens anxiety, although in Russia it should be more significant than

  in Germany. Workers are a risk group in the self-perception of

  precarity, but the situation in Russia is changing if differentiated

  professional groups are evaluated. Working conditions depend on the

  system of social support for workers and on the social capital of

  workers (family support and the origin of the worker). The

  self-perception of precariousness among workers increases if the number

  of dependents is high. The size of the enterprise has a different impact

  on self-perception of the precariousness for workers in Russia and

  Germany. In Russia, women are most susceptible to the perception of

  precarity, whereas in Germany, such effects are not recorded. In

  general, the study shows that the reduction of inequality in the

  involvement of citizens in the labor market in the modern market economy

  is directly related to the proactive role of the state in the social

  protection of workers.'
