. The economic well-being of the country depends on the size of the able-bodied population. The maximum possible preservation of labor potential is an essential task of public health in any country. The complexity and diversity of factors affecting the population’s mortality make the problem of studying this index considered one of the most urgent. The purpose of the study is to analyze the dynamics of mortality of Russia’s able-bodied population from the circulatory system’s diseases. Material and methods. as the research materials, the Single Interdepartmental Information and Statistical System’s official information. Results. During the past ten years, the mortality rate of the able-bodied population of Russia has been reduced by 1,7 times from all causes. The life expectancy at birth has increased by six years, and the proportion of non-disabled people has decreased by 7% in the population structure. The leading causes of mortality of Russia’s able-bodied population in 2016 were diseases of the circulatory system (DCS) and external causes in the presence of significant differences between Russia’s federal districts. Ischemic heart disease (IHD) and cerebrovascular disease occupy a vital place in the mortality structure of Russia’s able-bodied population. There were significant regional differences in the mortality rate of Russia’s able-bodied population from IHD (2.7 times). In regions with a high mortality rate of the able-bodied population from the DCS, a mortality rate of the able-bodied population from IHD was high. In all areas of Russia, the mortality rate of working-age men is higher than that of women. Conclusion. High mortality rates of Russia’s able-bodied population from DCS determine significant social and economic losses in the country. It put the task of optimizing existing and developing additional activities to study the causes of regional and gender differences, creating and improving organizational and medico-social technologies to improve the demographic situation.
