Abstract—
Based on the survey of the employed population of the Vologda oblast for 2016, a regression model was constructed that reflects the relationship between job satisfaction and the parameters characterizing job stability, fairness of labor remuneration in relation to labor contribution, and availability of additional guarantees. The research results indicate that the main factor affecting job satisfaction is the material factor.

Notes
According to Rea & Parker’s recommendations, when the values of Cramer’s V coefficient are less than 0.1, the correlation between the risk factor and outcome is insignificant; if the values are 0.1–0.2, 0.2–0.4, 0.4–0.6, 0.6–0.8, and 0.8–1.0, the correlation is weak, average, relatively strong, strong, and very strong, respectively [31].
