Resource Potential of the EAEU Labor Market and Migration Processes in Russia

Integration processes formed and developing within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) have a significant impact on the national markets of the member countries of this association, therefore, the process of evolution of the national labour markets of the EAEU member countries requires comprehensive detailed consideration and expert and analytical support, taking into account the dynamics and structure of the single labour market of the EAEU. The resource potential, qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the EAEU single labour market, its dynamics and development structure determine the sustainability of national labour markets, including the Russian one. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study are the works of Russian and foreign researchers, containing assessments of the resource potential and dynamics of the EAEU single labour market and the Russian labour market in the relationship with the integration processes initiated within the framework of this association, as well as with the problems and possible ways to reduce destabilizing factors. The information sources of the study are statistical and expert-analytical materials of statistical services of the Russian Federation and the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). The main results of the study are the conclusions about the need to assess the effectiveness of migration processes within the EAEU for the Russian labour market, taking into account the differences in the volume of markets of EAEU member states, sectoral needs and qualification characteristics of migrating labour resources, as well as the tasks of spatial development of the Russian Federation and the factors of external influence on the development of the Russian economy under sanctions pressure. The aim of the study is to describe, based on statistical data and expert assessments, the resource potential and dynamics of development of the common labour market of the EAEU and the Russian labour market. To achieve the goal of the study, the author sets the task to structure qualitative and quantitative characteristics of the common EAEU labour market on the basis of available statistical data, assess the dynamics of its development and determine the parameters of the impact of integration processes on the sustainability of the EAEU RT as a whole and the Russian labour market.
