Immigration and the European Labour Market (original) (raw)

AI-generated Abstract

This article examines the complex effects of immigration on the European labor market, emphasizing the dual nature of benefits and burdens that arise from increased migration. It highlights that while immigration can lead to workforce expansion and economic growth, especially in terms of housing and services demand, it also poses challenges such as lower wages, unemployment, and integration issues, particularly for less educated native workers. The interaction of immigrants' skills with existing workforce conditions and the economic status of host countries critically shape these outcomes.
