This article examines the social aspects of the mobile living conditions of people living in the south of the Tyumen Region and working in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Area. The methodological foundations of the analysis include the ideas on the social space of life, which allow revealing the place, role, meaning of interaction, and spatio-temporal movements of social actors, who have certain social positions and social connections.
Since 2005, the authors have studied the practice of rotational organization of labor in the implementation of large economic projects in Yamal, as well as in other northern and Arctic regions of Russia, the social well-being of rotational workers and their families living in the south of the Tyumen Region. Based on these studies, the authors show the lack of understanding of rotational labor as a technology for staffing economic projects, the need for its interpretation and research as a social phenomenon — a complex of interrelated social phenomena and processes in the social space of the territories of hiring and labor of shift workers, which are generated by their multilocal way of life or are its consequence. In addition, this paper authors demonstrates the insufficiency of modern regulatory and legal support of rotational work and describes the scheme of legal relations arising during its use requiring settlement.
