Labor Force Participation and Employment of Southeast Asian Refugees in the United States
Author: Robert L. Bach
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Refugees
Languages : en
Pages : 106
Book Description
This report analyses the employment of Indo-Chinese refugees in the United States. Its findings are based on existing research and on surveys of Indo-Chinese refugees. It comprises eight sections: 1) Introduction; 2) Aggregate Patterns of Labour Force Activity; 3) Determinants of Labour Force Participation (for example, age, sex, education, knowledge of English); 4) Sponsorship and Employment; 5) Ethnicity and Employment; 6) Methods of Job Search; 7) Jobs; and 8) Concluding Remarks. The author argues that welfare dependency by refugees has not inhibited their search for work. He maintains that their immigration status and previous training, the condition of the local economy and the character of the resettlement programme are the main factors responsible for the difficulties which refugees encounter in searching for employment. The author concludes that the level of public assistance utilization by refugees will only decline when their employment situation improves and not the reverse. He further concludes that reductions in assistance could intensify the hardships which refugees already face in the labour market.
