Abstract
- International labour migration has a substantial impact on the development of the labour market. The article presents the typology of the Russian western border regions by the sensitivity to social migration risks for their labour markets. More than half of these regions are sensitive to the risks of labour force marginalization and wage dumping. Labour markets with a significant share of foreign migrant workers, that is in St. Petersburg, the Nenetsky autonomous area, Leningrad and Kaliningrad regions, turned out to be the most sensitive to the manifestation of risks. The pressure of foreign migrant workers on the unemployed and native partātime workers here is considerable with migrant earnings reaching up to 48.5% of the regional average. But these social risks are unlikely to materialize now since the labour market tension here is low. The least exposed areas are the city of Sevastopol and the Republic of Crimea.
