description The purpose of the article is to develop a System Dynamics model of the functioning and development of the Ukrainian labor market, which can subsequently be used to simulate various government decisions and policies. The Stella Architect software is used to construct the model, allowing to provide insights into the current state of the labor market and forecasts future trends, helping identify potential improvements. The explanatory System Dynamics Model effectively demonstrates the complex interrelationships that influence the dynamics of the Ukrainian labor market. The identified balancing loops highlight key factors such as retirement, business closures, production levels, and the formation of new businesses, all of which shape labor supply and demand. Each loop illustrates how changes in one economic aspect can impact others, underscoring the interconnectedness of labor dynamics, economic growth, and business development. Furthermore, the developed causal loop diagrams emphasize the cyclical nature of these interactions, where increases in labor supply can result in higher wages and GDP, leading to further investment and business creation. This model offers valuable insights into the feedback mechanisms that may stabilize or destabilize the labor market, particularly in response to external shocks or policy interventions. In the future, the developed model can be used to test various policies for major elements of the model and to simulate its behavior.
