The article describes the socio-economic problems of labor migration in Russia, CIS and the world in General. It is noted that Russia plays the role of a donor country supplying manpower to the markets of host countries, however, in relation to the CIS and some neighbouring Asian countries, Russia is the host country. The causes of migration flows directed to and from Russia our country abroad are studied. The segments of the labor market in which workers compete with citizens of the Russian Federation are identified. The social, economic and legal problems of labour migrants are analyzed. It is emphasized that the main problems at present are born not by the scale of immigration to Russia, and its spontaneous, uncontrolled character. The mechanisms of harmonization of social and labour relations on the labour market are proposed.

Трудовая миграция стала неотъемлемой частью современной мировой экономики. Место отдельных государств в процессах международной миграции определяется их экономическим статусом. Сегодня можно наблюдать, как люди перемещаются в поисках временной работы из бедных стран в экономически более благополучные страны, — и это естественный обменный процесс трудовыми ресурсами.
