Labour Market Outcomes Of Immigrant Youth:

Di: Stella

Although it’s narrowing, the gap in unemployment rates between immigrant and Canadian -born youth remains wide.2 While there is extensive research done on labour market outcomes for newcomers and some research done on youth, there is very little on the topic of newcomer youth and their access to the labour market. For example, significant differences may exist between men and women, or between immigrants belonging to different ethnic communities. As regards the relationship between foreign language skills and outcomes on the labour market, the results of the literature tend to converge towards the same general conclusions.

However, most studies focus on particular countries and specific labour market outcomes, such as unemployment and non-employment rates, or the incidence of job loss. We provide a comprehensive analysis of labour market transition rates of immigrants and natives using microdata for France, Spain, and the United States. This article analyses the labour market integration of newly arrived immigrants in the UK labour market, based on data from the UK Labour Force Survey. We focus on immigrants who arrived in the United Kingdom since 2000 and distinguish different cohorts based on the year of their arrival in the country. We examine the extent to which these new arrivals were able to

Newcomer Youth and Labour Market Access

This ILO-WB Policy brief examines the impact of youth-targeted active labour market programs (ALMPs) on employment and earnings, based on a systematic review of evaluations conducted from 1990 to 2021. Overview of the study Using integrated 2006 and 2016 census data, this study examines We focus on the education and labour market integration outcomes of a recent cohort of young Black Canadians. Specifically, this study examines the link between the characteristics of the youth and their families when they were living with their parents (in 2006), and their education and labour

Community-based programs can provide supports to ensure that immigrant youth continue to experience positive educational outcomes. Tutoring, mentoring, peer-based support, and culturally-grounded programming may be particularly valuable. These types of supports are especially important for some groups of immigrant youth who face higher risks, including youth This partly explains the scarcity of research on immigrants’ labour market discrimination, as well as on the stereotypes that natives hold towards the main immigrant minorities, and on whether those differ by gender.

In sum, this study suggests that there are different pathways to the integration of immigrant children, as the ability to achieve higher education regardless of their parental education as well as the ability to convert educational qualifications into labour market outcomes tended to differ significantly across different second generation Using data from the Canadian Longitudinal Immigration Database and Heckman selection estimation, the paper finds minimal variation in refugee children and youths’ entry into the labour market compared to children of other immigrant streams.

Understanding the economic situation of dropouts is also important, as it illustrates how the labour market outcomes for young people who have completed a high school education differ from those who dropped out. Immigrant Youth in Canada’s Labour Market This course lays out and expands upon the findings of WES’ Going the Distance: Immigrant Youth in Canada’s Labour Market report (2023). It discusses the disconnect between immigrant and refugee youth’s high rates of academic success and the challenges they face when entering the labour force.

In this study, I compare the labour market outcomes of school completers and school dropouts 10 years after they have entered upper secondary education. I compare second-generation immigrant youth from Turkey, Morocco, Pakistan, Vietnam, India and Chile with native majority youth in terms of economic inactivity, employment probability and educational enrolment. I between immigrant use In contrast, the social capital perspective provides a more comprehensive picture of how informal social relations produce labour market inequality by revealing how resources bound in social networks can have labour market effects through multiple mechanisms. The theory of the effect of social capital on labour market outcomes has been supported by research

This report examines the disconnect between immigrant and refugee youth’s high rates of academic success and the challenges they face when entering the workforce. The youth employment challenge is not only about job creation, but especially about enhancing the quality of jobs for youth. This systematic review assesses the impact of youth employment interventions on the labour market outcomes of young people. Young immigrants are key to the growth of a vital and vibrant Canadian labour force. How has COVID-19 affected their labour force participation? Our report

discrimination in the labour market, all influence the overall well-being of immigrant youth. Immigrant youth and their families tend to experience high levels of underemployment and unemployment, which negatively affect immigrant Canada’s colour-coded labour market by the data, and in the voices of Black youth. Although the labour market impact of the recent economic downturn differed significantly across countries, both in terms of intensity and of the type of workers most affected, labour demand fell in all countries. Many of the countries that were hardest-hit during the downturn had been among the main recipient countries of migration flows immediately prior to the crisis.

Making the Grade: Immigrant Youth in Post-Secondary Education

In the former, the children of migrants have education and labour market outcomes that tend to be at least at par with those of the children of natives. In the European OECD countries (with the exception of Switzerland), both education and labour market outcomes of the children of immigrants tend to be much less favourable. In this paper, we point to differences in the immigrant populations, educational systems and labour markets as factors that are likely to affect the educational aspirations and outcomes of youth with immigrant backgrounds.

Comparative school-to-work research has long emphasised the role of institutions in shaping youth labour market integration. This paper provides an overview of this research stream, consisting of four main sections. The first section introduces a variety of labour market outcomes of young graduates within Europe For example significant differences and identifies country clusters with higher and Both educational attainment and the connections between education and the labour market differ not only between racialized groups, but within these groups based on characteristics such as immigrant status, generation status, country of birth and location of study.

Are the labour market outcomes of children with an immigrant background from the different regions of origin, at the same level of education and once they have become young adults, comparable to those of youth whose parents were born in Canada (employment and earnings)?

Immigration is a significant component of labour market, economic, and demographic growth in our country. Currently, the work and investments made by immigrants contributes to over 70% of the labour market growth in Canada and is projected to contribute to nearly 100% of the growth in the coming years (Chrétien, 2003; Statistics Canada, 2003). Overview Ontario’s labour force is broadly comprised of three groups: individuals born in Canada, non-permanent residents, and international immigrants with permanent resident status. While labour market outcomes for immigrant youth improve as their time spent in Canada increases, and many immigrant youth benefit from having family support, recent immigrant youth (those in Canada for 5 years or less) still tend to

The UK does not have an overarching policy on migrants’ labour market integration, although the 2019 Home Office Integration framework – published when the Conservative Party was in office – emphasised that positive labour market outcomes were key for migrants’ wider integration.

In Canada, newcomers are often faced with many challenges when integrating into the labour market. This their labour force participation study examined the labour market integration experiences of newcomers in Regina, Saskatchewan.
