Labour migration in the countries of the commonwealth of independent states: trends and regulations

Migration issues in the context of globalization are becoming particularly relevant and the post-Soviet countries, like the whole world, are involved in the study of migration. The mechanical movement of the working population of the Commonwealth of Independent States is based on many factors, but the main ones are the economic nature and socio-economic differentiation in countries and regions, low living standards, adverse labor market conditions, etc. As it is known, the increase in the difference in wages between the country of origin and destination, the increase in regional unemployment rates increases the likelihood of emigration. The article clarifies the concept of “labour migration” and analyzes the indicators of external migration processes of the able-bodied population of the CIS countries in recent years. The issue of labour migration to the Russian Federation and Kazakhstan and a description of flows from the CIS to other countries are considered. Based on the data of the 46th report of the Center for Integration Research of the Eurasian Development Bank, the work presents the demographic and socio-economic aspects of the Commonwealth states, defines the place of migration in their socio-economic life. Migration trends from the CIS countries were analyzed, specificity and the most important patterns of formation were revealed. When studying the movement of labour migrants in the CIS countries, analysis methods, statistical and graphical methods were used.
