Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of foreign workers in Korea is growing rapidly, increasing from 1.1 million in 2012 to 1.4 million in 2016. As a result, the impact of foreign workers on the labour market and Korean society is expected to increase.As industrialisation and income levels advanced from the late 1980s, a shortage of low-skilled workers developed. From the early 1990s, the industrial trainee system encouraged an influx of foreign workers. Currently, quotas for foreign workers are in place to ensure their orderly entry and management.The inflow of foreign workers is seen to have had a generally positive effect on the Korean economy, contributing to domestic economic growth by increasing labour input in industries that are less favoured by domestic workers, and easing the trend towards workforce ageing in the Korean labour market. But, as most foreign workers are engaged in low-skilled, low-wage occupations, the inflow has tended to exacerbate labour market polarisation and to delay the restructuring of marginal companies.Full Publication: "http://ssrn.com/abstract=3331745" Globalisation and Deglobalisation.

Book Synopsis Recruiting Immigrant Workers by : OECD
Download or read book Recruiting Immigrant Workers written by OECD and published by Org. for Economic Cooperation & Development. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Korean labour migration system has expanded since the mid-2000s, primarily in the admission of temporary foreign workers for less skilled jobs. Its temporary labour programme, addressed largely at SMEs in manufacturing and based on bilateral agreements with origin countries, has become the largest such programme in the OECD. Structural changes in the labour force, with a rapidly shrinking and highly educated youth population, keep the underlying demand for this programme strong. Yet skills levels of workers are increasing, and there is interest in increasing Korea's share in global talent mobility, including international students and innovative entrepreneurs. This book addresses the question of how to ensure that international recruitment can help meet urgent needs in the labour market which cannot be met locally, and how the temporary labour migration programme - and other migration streams - can evolve to ensure that Korea meets its policy objectives. This review first examines the characteristics of the Korean labour market and main challenges where labour migration can help address demand. Following a discussion of various programmes and procedures, the review assesses how labour migration is playing a role in different sectors and how programme governance could be improved. It then explores the channels for high-skilled migrants and how these could be improved in light of international experience.

Book Synopsis Migrant Workers in Pacific Asia by : Yaw A. Debrah

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The migration of workers to the high growth countries in Pacific Asia in the 1980s was a new phenomenon in these countries. As such the host governments did not have in place adequate housing, social security and legal protection, but the tight controls following the financial crisis have pushed these issues to the back burner. This volume discusses the debates and controversies surrounding this issue in Malaysia, Taiwan, SIngapore, South Korea, Japan and China.
Book Synopsis An Analysis of International Labor Mobility by : Juyoung Kim
Download or read book An Analysis of International Labor Mobility written by Juyoung Kim and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The employment of foreign workers is getting more attention among policy makers and labor market experts, as the Korean population is aging in an unprecedentedly rapid way.In this paper, we analyze the impacts of foreign labor force influx on the domestic labor market theoretically and overview the foreign worker employment system in Korea. Theories show that foreign workers may lead to reduction of wages as well as some substitution of native workers with foreign workers, depending on industry, skill level and firm type. However, job market segmentation and induced new investment may decrease a negative impact on the domestic labor market. Combining the theory, the institutional facts, and current states of foreign workers in Korea, we draw some policy implications. First, H-2 visa holders could neutralize the effort on the industrial quotas. And also, this may make the government lose control over the foreign workers' labor supply. Second, statistics on the labor shortage may need to be improved since domestic employers have an incentive to overemphasize their labor shortage. Third, the current quota system may need to incorporate a long-run forecast by encompassing the long-run industrial trend and change in Korean population. Fourth, the principle of short-term migration is losing its ground as the government allows foreign workers to reside for longer periods. The government may need to decide whether to stick to the principle or not. Fifth, the government needs a more systematic way to introduce high-skilled, professional foreign workers as the employment permit system does for low-skilled foreign workers. Finally, the government needs to clarify the policy targets through a more sophisticated classification of foreign workers and has to decide whether it would encompass those foreign workers between high-skilled professionals and low-skilled workers.

Book Synopsis Labor Market Duality in Korea by : Johanna Schauer
Download or read book Labor Market Duality in Korea written by Johanna Schauer and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Labor market duality is a complex and critical issue for many countries that can lower productivity, contribute to inequality and result in negative externalities. In this paper, I study duality in the Korean labor market and analyze its sources and potential policy options. I find that employment protection legislations and large productivity differentials are the key drivers of Korea’s duality. In addition, applying a general equilibrium search-and-matching model and calibrating it to the Korean economy, I show that well-calibrated flexicurity policies can significantly reduce duality and inequality and raise welfare and productivity. Notably, the introduction of all three pillars—flexiblity, a strong safety net and active labor market policies—is critical for its success. If only one pillar is introduced it can result in negative side-effects and might not reduce duality.
