The main driver for Moldovan migrants remains emigration for economic purposes, mainly due to low wages on the country's labour market. In this article the author analyzes the legal and institutional framework in labour migration processes, the migration management framework, as well as the legal activity of placing the citizens of the Republic of Moldova in the field of work abroad.
