Abstract

The article presents main data on the employment and contribution of migrants to the economies of the EU member states, as well as on working conditions in those sectors where migrants are predominantly employed. Solutions are proposed for reforming migration policy and modernizing welfare and public health systems with the view of minimizing the pandemic crisis consequences. The author suggests using the agent-based method of simulation to predict the socio-economic effect of the pandemic and to select the most effective strategies for countering crisis processes.

Keywords
