International migration has become not only an important means of
equalizing economic and social opportunities for people, but also a
source of various threats to human rights. The study aims to analyze
the impact of contemporary migration processes on the socioeconomic
status of migrants, identify the main threats faced by economic (labor)
migrants and the resulting human rights and social policy challenges,
and analyze the regional and universal mechanisms for international
protection of migrant workers adopted to date. Using qualitative data
collection methods, the authors analyze the threats to human rights
experienced by migrant workers. The paper also lists the essential legal
provisions that define the status of migrants at different stages of the
migration process, including the universal conventions of the International Labor Organization and the UN, documents developed within
the framework of regional cooperation structures, and national legislation. The study defines the tasks facing state social policy to minimize
the negative consequences of migration. Conclusions are drawn on the
effectiveness of legal instruments for the protection of migrants adopted to date.
