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.
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 Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 270 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.
Download or read book Migrant Workers written by Qingwen Xu and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Worldwide labor migration has transformed and reshaped various fields of government policy and professional practices. Labor migration is associated with the non-economic social phenomena that scholars have increasingly paid attention to in both sending and receiving destinations. For practitioners in the field of education, medicine, nursing, social work, mental health, public health, and other professional practices, the human face of labor migration migrant workers and their families daily challenges often reveals the human cost of migration behind the image of economic gain and benefits. Migrant workers and their families are facing vexing challenges ranging from basic needs to psychosocial well-being, despite who they are and where they come from. Traditional ways of thinking and knowing cannot address these challenges adequately; rather, established divisions of professions, systems, disciplines, and/or areas of practice might just be the factor that constrains the ability to clearly articulate compelling problems and adds an additional layer of complexity to problem solving. This book focuses on country policies and practices, and draws on theoretical ideas that provide the intellectual basis. In addition, it offers vivid examples of how migrant workers manage to work, pursue economic security, strive and adjust in new communities, define and negotiate self and identity, and seek health and well-being. While the book illuminates shared challenges and experiences for each group of migrant workers (i.e. low-skilled workers, internal migrants and other types of migrating laborers), it also synthesises the intersectionality across all migrant workers, as they remain committed to bettering the lives of their families and communities in their origin countries as well as new host countries and communities. This volume reflects the efforts of interdisciplinary research and collaboration. Based on empirical studies and policy analysis, the researchers draw broader implications for evidence-based practice and policy in migration studies, and offer practical suggestions for policy and service delivery design, including formal and informal mechanisms of support which can inform the professional reader.
Book Synopsis Work and the Challenges of Belonging by : Floya Anthias
Download or read book Work and the Challenges of Belonging written by Floya Anthias and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages with migrant work in globalizing economies, both in the EU and worldwide, to explore the relationships between work and the complexity of migrant belonging in transnational spaces. Migrant experiences related to global labour market structures are understood in the context of transnational and national policy frames that largely determine the production of migrant work as poorly paid, precarious, and accompanied by low status and inadequate social protection. Special foci include issues of temporality, circularity and precarity; solidarity and belonging; migrants’ strategies for coping with restrictive migration and economic policies; and practices and patterns relating to the commodification of migrant work. The book also discusses some of the analytical and political problems of migration and labour market discourses and practices, particularly in relation to developments around new forms of exclusion, securitization and ethnicization of migrant work. Work and the Challenges of Belonging is cross-disciplinary and comparative, engaging with theoretical, empirical and policy approaches.
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 Workers in Russia by : Anna-Liisa Heusala
Download or read book Migrant Workers in Russia written by Anna-Liisa Heusala and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Russia has a very large pool of economic migrants, up to 25% of the workforce according to some estimates. Although many migrants, many from former Soviet countries which are now independent, entered Russia legally, they frequently face bureaucratic obstacles to legal employment and Russian citizenship, factors which have led to a very large “shadow economy”. This book presents a comprehensive examination of migrant labour in Russia. It describes the nature of migrant labour, explores the shadow economy and its unfortunate consequences, and discusses the rise of popular sentiment against migrants and the likely impact. The book also sets the Russian experiences of migrant labour in context, comparing the situation in Russia with that in other countries with significant migrant labour workforces.

Book Synopsis Moving for Prosperity by : World Bank
Download or read book Moving for Prosperity written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-06-14 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migration presents a stark policy dilemma. Research repeatedly confirms that migrants, their families back home, and the countries that welcome them experience large economic and social gains. Easing immigration restrictions is one of the most effective tools for ending poverty and sharing prosperity across the globe. Yet, we see widespread opposition in destination countries, where migrants are depicted as the primary cause of many of their economic problems, from high unemployment to declining social services. Moving for Prosperity: Global Migration and Labor Markets addresses this dilemma. In addition to providing comprehensive data and empirical analysis of migration patterns and their impact, the report argues for a series of policies that work with, rather than against, labor market forces. Policy makers should aim to ease short-run dislocations and adjustment costs so that the substantial long-term benefits are shared more evenly. Only then can we avoid draconian migration restrictions that will hurt everybody. Moving for Prosperity aims to inform and stimulate policy debate, facilitate further research, and identify prominent knowledge gaps. It demonstrates why existing income gaps, demographic differences, and rapidly declining transportation costs mean that global mobility will continue to be a key feature of our lives for generations to come. Its audience includes anyone interested in one of the most controversial policy debates of our time.
