Impact of Immigration on Labor Markets

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the impact of increased immigration on labor markets. It primarily focuses on the literature review of five sources that pertain to how immigration has negatively affected the native labor force. Some experts argue that the problem lies with the employer, as organizations that employ low-skilled workers may hire immigrants to save on labor costs.

From the Paper:

"Trade agreements between countries and regions (i.e. NAFTA and CAFTA) have resulted in increased immigration to North America. The North American low-skilled labour force is suffering as the competition in this market is rapidly increasing as a result of increased immigration. The purpose of this paper is to discuss and analyze whether increased immigration negatively affects native labour markets."
