Overview
This edition focuses on the employment situation of immigrants. For the first time, this report presents a scoreboard of labour-market integration of immigrants, as well as an analysis of wage differentials between immigrants and the native-born. The publication also examines the new laws governing immigrants entry, stay and access to the labour market. The selective recruitment of immigrants according to labour market needs is described, as are measures to facilitate the integration of immigrants. International cooperation to improve border control and to combat irregular migration is analysed in detail. Two special chapters analyse topical issues. The first addresses the management of migration of lower-skilled workers and reviews the different types of existing temporary and permanent programmes. Special attention is devoted to the issue of illegal employment of foreigners and to regularisation programmes. The second chapter presents an in-depth study of return migration and looks at its impact on the economic development of sending countries. A dynamic link (StatLink) is provided for each table and graph. It directs the user to a web page where the corresponding data are available in Excel(r) format.
