The purposes of the strategic forecasting for the level of employment in the innovation sphere have been worked out. The sequence and the structural and the logical framework of the development and implementation of the employment regulation strategy in the innovation sector of the national economy have been proposed. Recommendations regarding to the directions of reforming the system of state regulation in the sphere of innovations have been marked. The three possible scenarios for process of employment regulation in the innovation sector have been considered, namely: the destructive scenario (further aggravation of the military-political conflict); the self-regulating (inertial) scenario; the optimistic scenario. Thus, the conceptual design of the state strategy makes it possible to develop an efficient mechanism for its planning and implementation. The strategy in implementing public-policy decisions is urgently necessary condition for the effectiveness of this process. Reform of state regulation in the sphere of innovations, in our opinion, should be done in the following areas: - the creation of favorable conditions for the promotion of innovative activities; - introduction of innovations; - functioning of innovation infrastructure; - the functioning of market innovation and technology.
