description Work presents the important role and necessity of statistical data in the analysis of socio-demographic factors on society. A socio-demographic phenomenon that has seen a remarkable and controversial development in recent decades is the migration of the internal and international population. This phenomenon, over the years, has caused distortions in the amount and structure of the population in Romania, influencing all major demographic processes and impacting the level and pace of development of the national economy in general and the labor market, in particular. Romania has the highest poverty rate in the European Union, with a rural environment that remains below the level of economic and social development. Internal migration is one of the most important demographic processes leading to changes in the population structure. The results show that an important role in internal migration flows from rural to urban are the population between 15 and 50 years and the working age population. Population growth in these cities is mainly due to internal migration, as internal migrants are mainly attracted to large cities. In Romania, the employment rate is increasing amid changes in the age structure that reflect the decline and aging of the population, but the labor force is decreasing and the labor market is shrinking.
