Russia and a number of post-Soviet states have repeatedly attempted new integration – the creation of the Commonwealth of Independent States (1991), the Customs Union (1995), the Eurasian Economic Community (from 2000 to 2014). On May 29, 2014, a new stage in the development of interstate integration in the post-Soviet space began. Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan, later they were joined by Armenia and Kyrgyzstan, signed an agreement on the establishment of the Eurasian Economic Union (the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union), in order to create an unified market for goods, services, capital and labor resources. This article is devoted to specific aspects of the legal status of labor migrants.
Highlights:
► employers may involve the labor forces of EEU members without regard to restrictions to protect national labor market
► the state recognizes the documents confirming education issued by educational institutions of EEU members without the established by the legislation of the state of employment procedures for the recognition of documents on education
► "working experience" and "periods of insurance" from the point of view of legal consequences – are not equal
► most states have relied on a combination of savings and insurance elements
► the issue of income taxation of EEU members is one of the major issues settled within the framework of the EEU Treaty
► one of the main reasons encouraging people to seek work in another country – the most favorable conditions, in terms of the received rewards
► the access of workers of EEU member to financial services, including loans, is not only a condition for comfortable life of the migrants themselves, but an important condition for the formation of a common labor market and services
