Abstract

Migration is a global reality that influences multidimensionally the countries, assuming important implications at demographic, economic, social level. Migration is often carried out from countries with significant increases in demographics to those areas that have declined demographics.This population movement has advantages and disadvantages for both countries of origin and destination countries.The multiple faces of this phenomenon have been extensively studied over time at the international level. Although in the past the migration trend was to leave Europe for other areas, such as America and Russia. Nowadays, the number of immigrants arriving in Europe is overwhelming. They are looking for opportunities for career, study and access to health systems that conform to a superior level of economic development. Most people think they will get rid of poverty.The purpose of this article is to illustrate the evolution of labor force migration at the level of Bihor County, both at international and internal level. The international migration at this county level was made in a majority proportion after the fall of the communist regime. The reasons for which most people decided to leave the county and, implicitly, Romania are diverse, but especially the desire to have a better life, characterized by freedom of expression and various benefits. Domestic migration was predominantly made to rural areas. Agriculture being one of the main sectors that sustained subsistence. The wage earning is higher in this sector, a favorable and encouraging aspect for those who have decided to migrate to different areas. County authorities, such as the County Agency for Employment, have encouraged labor mobility to reduce unemployment by awarding various bonuses consisting of money for those who have taken jobs further away from their home town or residence.
