Foreign Workers in Altai Region: Despite the lack of specific data, general trends from Russia's broader labor mobility patterns suggest that the Altai region may see an increase in foreign worker recruitment. In 2022, domestic labor migration reached an 8-year low, with economically developed cities and northern territories attracting the most workers. Foreign workers in Russia are often employed in construction, energy, and agriculture, and if Altai's rural economy follows broader trends, it may focus on seasonal or agricultural labor. However, more precise statistics, localized reports, or government labor databases are necessary for a comprehensive understanding of foreign worker recruitment in the Altai region.
