Abstract: In economics, earning has traditionally been viewed as a quantitative category. This article provides an original perspective on earning - in terms of quality that allows taking a fresh look at revenue. The author's scientific and methodological approach to assessing the quality of earning, developed in this article, takes into account the following criteria: 1. The official (or shadow) nature of the earnings and their contribution to the staff retirement plan, its creditworthiness, the formation of the earning part of the state budget (payment of taxes); 2. The size, dynamics and comparative characteristics of the actually available earning; 3. Positive or negative consequences of receiving earning for society and the environment (for example, revenue from criminal activity, poaching and other prohibited activities will be of low quality); 4. Contribution of earning to the image of the country (for example, the currency in which revenue is obtained); 5. Consequences of receiving earning for meeting the needs of the employee according to A. Maslow's pyramid (unleashing human potential, building a career, working in specialty); 6. Contribution to the reduction (or increase) of inequality in earning. The advantages of the developed scientific and methodological approach to assessing the quality of earning are that it allows comparing representatives of different professions and sectors of the economy, different regions and countries from the point of view of the quality of earning, as well as studying the dynamics of changes in the quality of earning. Due to this, not quantity (nominal revenue) but the quality will determine the features of employees when receiving income.
