The article analyzes current practices and measures of regulating commuting in different countries by classifying them according to the level, object of impact, actor, type of impact and purpose. The analysis shows that the regulation of migration processes in foreign countries is carried out by various branches of law, and measures are aimed not only at managing the flows of commuting, but also at mitigating its consequences at various levels. In Russia in general, commuting is mentioned in the strategies of socioeconomic development of individual regions without being fully integrated into management mechanisms. We reveal that its mentioning in regional development strategies does not take into consideration its actual volumes and implications for the regional economy. Thus, regional authorities do not sufficiently take into account economic and social consequences of commuting in their strategies. This also applies to its positive aspects, such as job creation and economic recovery, as well as potential negative effects associated with infrastructure overload, regional budget losses, etc. The importance of developing a system for monitoring commuting is emphasized, as well as the need for additional research to assess all aspects of its impact on the regions. The article is of interest to a wide range of researchers studying labor migration and regional development. The results can be used to develop practical recommendations for optimizing measures to regulate commuting in Russia, aimed at reducing its negative consequences and enhancing its potential for socio-economic development of territories.
