Book Synopsis Migration, Precarity, and Global Governance by : Carl-Ulrik Schierup
Download or read book Migration, Precarity, and Global Governance written by Carl-Ulrik Schierup and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2015-02-05 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migration, Precarity, & Global Governance explores an understudied, but central, area within contemporary studies of globalisation and precarisation. It relates to the interface between migration, global governance and the role of civil society, with particular focus on the dilemmas and options of trade unions, too often left off the agenda. The volume suggests that the trade union movement is undergoing a fundamental debate about revitalisation, which could play an important role in terms of the economic, political and social integration of migrant workers, with implications for the transformation of contemporary societies in general. The volume adopts an interdisciplinary and comparative approach, emphasizing the complexity of historically grounded social relations. It examines international migration as it is impacted by, and impacts on, globalization, social and political struggles, and the recurring crisis of capitalism. The first part of the book presents five complementary perspectives on the political economy of migration, labour, and citizenship. Part Two offers analyses of the relationship between labour unions and migrant workers. Part Three explores the way trade unions, migrant organisations, and other civil society groupings interact with an incipient global governance regime relating to migration. It also examines issues of state and non-state actors' accountability in relation to human rights claims as well as the impact of the norm of corporate social responsibility.
Book Synopsis Governing International Labour Migration by : Christina Gabriel
Download or read book Governing International Labour Migration written by Christina Gabriel and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a critical examination of the way in which the nature and governance of international labour migration is changing within a globalizing environment. It examines how labour mobility and the governance of labour migration are changing by exploring the links between political economy and differentiated forms of labour migration. Additionally, it considers the effects of new social models of inclusion and exclusion on labour migration. Therefore, the book troubles the conventional dichotomies and categorizations - permanent vs. temporary; skilled vs. unskilled; legal vs. illegal -- that have informed migration studies and regulatory frameworks. Theoretically, this volume contributes to an ongoing project of reframing the study of migration within politics and international relations. Bringing together an interdisciplinary group of scholars, drawing on examples from the European Union, North America and Asia, Governing International Labour Migration will be of interest to students and scholars of migration studies, IPE, international relations, and economics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the right policies are in place, labour migration can help countries respond to shifts in labour supply and demand, stimulate innovation and sustainable development, and transfer and update skills. However, a lack of international standards regarding concepts, definitions and methodologies for measuring labour migration data still needs to be addressed. This report gives global and regional estimates, broken down by income group, gender and age. It also describes the data, sources and methodology used, as well as the corresponding limitations. The report seeks to contribute to the 2018 Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration and to achieving SDG targets 8.8 and 10.7

Book Synopsis Health, Safety and Well-being of Migrant Workers: New Hazards, New Workers by : Francisco Díaz Bretones
Download or read book Health, Safety and Well-being of Migrant Workers: New Hazards, New Workers written by Francisco Díaz Bretones and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-24 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores psychosocial problems amongst one of the most vulnerable social groups in our societies, immigrant workers, through a multidisciplinary approach. Migration has sometimes been oversimplified as a flow of workers from “poorer”, developing nations to “wealthier”, industrialised nations. The issue, however, is more complex and currently migration is a global phenomenon in which all countries are recipients of workers from third countries and send workers to third countries. The working conditions of immigrant workers at various levels are not always well known, though some studies have established that the negative impact on migrant workers is cumulative, and primarily stems from adverse living and working conditions in a new country and increased levels of vulnerability. The contributions to this volume cover discussions on migrant workers in the industrial, agricultural and service sectors across the world. They critically study the impact of work Hazards on the health and wellbeing of migrant workers in order to shed light on the social and health implications of migrant work, explore the relation between organizational, psychosocial and work factors, and analyse the migration process from a wider perspective and as a global phenomenon present in every country. The contributors provide multidisciplinary and multicultural contemporary perspectives, thereby providing readers with wide-ranging insights. This volume is of interest to researchers and students from the social and behavioural sciences, particularly those focusing on health studies and migration studies.
Book Synopsis Migrant Labour and the Reshaping of Employment Law by : Bernard Ryan
Download or read book Migrant Labour and the Reshaping of Employment Law written by Bernard Ryan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-04-20 with total page 363 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The presence of migrant workers has become a central feature of labour markets in highly developed countries. The International Labour Organisation estimates that in 2013 there were 112 million resident migrant workers in the 58 highest-income countries, who made up 16% of the workforce. Non-resident workers have also increasingly become part of the labour available for employment in other states, often on a temporary basis. This work takes a thematic and comparative approach to examine the profound implications of contemporary labour migration for employment law regimes in highly developed countries. In so doing, it aims to promote greater recognition of labour migration-related questions, and of the interests of migrant workers, within employment law scholarship. The work comprises original analyses by leading scholars of migration and employment law at the European Union level, and in Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States. The specific position of migrant workers is addressed, for example as regards equality of treatment, or the position in employment law of migrant workers without a right to work. The work also explores the effects of migration levels and patterns upon general employment law including the law relating to collective bargaining, and remedies against exploitation.
Book Synopsis International Labour Migration in the Middle East and Asia by : Kwen Fee Lian
Download or read book International Labour Migration in the Middle East and Asia written by Kwen Fee Lian and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-08-22 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discourse on migration outcomes in the West has largely been dominated by issues of integration, but it is more relevant to view immigration in non-Western societies in relation to practices of exclusion and inclusion. Exclusion refers to a situation in which individuals and groups are usually denied access to the goods, services, activities and resources associated with citizenship. However, this approach has been criticised in relation to gender issues, which are very relevant to the situation of migrants. The authors in this volume address this criticism. Furthermore, when framed within a North–South discourse, it may be potentially ethnocentric to assume that the experience of exclusion is cross-culturally uniform. Indeed, work on migration issues has invariably been conducted within such a discourse. The contributors go beyond this binary discourse of ‘exclusion versus inclusion’ which has dominated migration research. They examine the situation of migrants in the Middle East and Asia as one that encompasses both exclusion and inclusion, addressing related concepts of empowerment, ethnocracy, the feminisation of migration and gendered geographies of power, liberal constraint and multiculturalism, individual agency, migrant-friendly discourses, spaces of emancipation and spaces of insecurity. The book highlights current research in the Arab Gulf states, and examines multiculturalism in Asia more broadly. It will be of particular interest to students and researchers in international labour migration studies in the Middle East and Asia.

Book Synopsis International Labour Migration by : International Labour Office
Download or read book International Labour Migration written by International Labour Office and published by International Labor Office. This book was released on 2010 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are almost 200 million migrants in the world today. The majority of people leaving their home countries are migrating for work and almost half of them are women. The contribution of these workers is evident, yet many work in unacceptable conditions, denied access to social protection and their labour rights. With its mandate on all labour issues, the ILO has built up a wealth of knowledge on migration for employment, in terms of both original research and the rich experience of its Members - governments, employers and trade unions - in dealing with migrant workers. Drawing on these unique resources, this book offers a comprehensive and accessible overview of international labour migration and the ILO's efforts to protect migrant workers through a rights-based approach. This book gives new insights into the factors that motivate people to seek work outside their country of origin and the significant development effects on both origin and destination countries. Exposing the often limited access of migrant workers to their fundamental rights at work, the book describes in detail the international norms that have evolved to protect migrant workers and ensure decent work for all. It reflects on existing and potential international governance structures and addresses linkages between migration and development. The book reviews the ILO's Multilateral Framework on Labour Migration and discusses its role in improving policy-making and upgrading international cooperation in the area of labour migration.

Book Synopsis Who Needs Migrant Workers? by : Martin Ruhs
Download or read book Who Needs Migrant Workers? written by Martin Ruhs and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-17 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are migrant workers needed to 'do the jobs that locals will not do' or are they simply a more exploitable labour force? Do they have a better 'work ethic' or are they less able to complain? Is migrant labour the solution to 'skills shortages' or actually part of the problem? This book provides a comprehensive framework for analysing the demand for migrant workers in high-income countries. It demonstrates how a wide range of government policies, often unrelated to migration, contribute to creating a growing demand for migrant labour. This demand can persist even during economic downturns. The book includes quantitative and qualitative analyses of the changing role of migrants in the UK economy. The empirical chapters include in-depth examinations of the nature of staff shortages and the use of migrant workers in six sectors: health; social care; hospitality; food production; construction; and financial services. The book' s conceptual framework and empirical findings are of importance to academic and policy debates about labour immigration in all high-income countries. The final chapter presents a comparative analysis of research and policy approaches to assessing labour shortages in the UK and the US. It examines the potential lessons of the UK's Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) for current debates about labour shortages and immigration reform in the US. The book will be of significant interest to policy-makers, stakeholders, academics and students.
Book Synopsis Employment Of Migrant labourers by : Dr Harsh Mani Singh
Download or read book Employment Of Migrant labourers written by Dr Harsh Mani Singh and published by BFC Publications. This book was released on 2022-01-14 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 triggered pandemic has overturned the social and economic pools, the two main poles of our human life. People facing quarantine, isolation and different other hygiene protocols are forced to face lockdown as the only option of prevention. While the lockdown has put all the economic activities of the entire world at grinding halt, the formidable employment crisis has started coming up. Out of the different aspects of unemployment arising out of this lockdown, the reverse migration of labourers is alarming. An economy facing the problem of unemployment in the preCovid period has been trying hard to create new opportunities of employment using different strategies oriented towards self employment, rather making our youth as employment provider and not the employment seekers. (1) One of the most coveted and sought for area is Artificial Intelligence which can be used at Larger scale to create self employed youths and group of youths. This streategy definitely needs learning and training. But there is large scale ambitious training programs of low skill, skill and high skill development among the youths of the country. Emergence of Gig economy is the best example of such novel initiatives.In the era of social distancing,on the one hand , the artificial intelligence is bound to be promoted further and on the other hand the problem of reverse migration is creating an unprecedented kind of employment problem before the country. In India the service seekers are rapidly moving towards a gig economy for reasons such as - (i) Cost-cutting (ii) Skilled workforce (iii) No middleman (iv) Flexibility of timing, work space and amount of service. (v) Time saving. etc. India has a great potential for going towards Gig economy due to the tendency of expanding supply of freelancer service providers with lower-skilled labour.In this context the reverse migration of labour force can be a boon in disguise. Small cities, towns and even in villages too the promotion and practice of freelance service providers can be instrumental in creating local level job opportunities for surplus local workforce (migrated labour). (2) Another important area may be the Rural Roads, Rural Houses, Toilets, Rain Water harvesting reservoirs, Solar Energy System Installation, Warehouse building etc. constructions where large number of labourers can be absorbed by curtailing the gestation period of such ongoing and upcoming projects. (3) Import substituting small production units like Toys,Electrical small and basic items like bulbs, switches,plugs and sockets, wires of household uses, home decor small materials etc. can be produced at local levels by absorbing local workforce. Now it is important to see that how India can establish a novel, viable and productive balance between all the above possible alternatives and reverse migration of labourers. The basic objective of this Webinar is to have a fruitful discussion and discourse over the different aspects and instruments of employment creation for migrant labourers through different means and reach a policy oriented useful conclusion.
