In evaluating its scale, E. Khibovskaia, who has regularly followed this process using data from the monitoring of economic and social change conducted by VTsIOM [the Russian Center for Public Opinion Research], estimates that in the mid-nineties at least ten to fifteen million people, or 15-20 percent of the country's employed population, had supplementary employment.
