In the aftermath of 2015 migration crisis, the problem of the impact of migration on the labour market is becoming more and more urgent. This paper is devoted to the analysis of the French labor market transformation in response to the growing share of migrants in the population. To evaluate this effect, quantitative and qualitative methods are used: multiple linear regression and correlation analysis, statistical analysis, as well as methods of comparison and synthesis. In this paper English and French literature is used, and statistical data is taken from the official websites of international organizations, statistical services, institutes (in particular, Insee), and French government bodies. Eventually, the model revealed that the increase in the share of migrants negatively affects the main indicators of the French labor market: with an increase in the share of migrants in the population by 1%, the unemployment rate grows by 0.63%, while average wages decrease by 0.004 euros per hour.
