Contemporary socio-economic development and changes within the structure of economy have reflected to economic characteristics of labour, primarily onto economic activity. Share of people employed in the primary sector has been decreasing, along with the increase of significance of the secondary and tertiary sectors. Over the last couple of years, the greatest increase within the share of the employed and national income has been lying within tertiary activities. The aforementioned structural economic change have been affecting the scope, directions and structure of commuting flows on local, regional and national levels. The aim of this paper is to point the key characteristics of economic structure of commuters in Serbia (without the data for Autonomous Province Kosovo and Metohija) - who they are and where they go.
