- The impact of immigration on a country's local-born workers is complex. It is most accurate to assume that immigration has differing impacts on different workers. a) The skill level of workers appears to be a relevant determinant of the impact that immigration will have on their employment prospects, particularly in terms of wages earned. Describe how the usage of a point system that results in increased acceptance of relatively high-skill immigrants can help protect those local-born workers who are most vulnerable to increased labour market competition. b) Describe how education policy can also serve to help protect local-born workers from the negative impacts of increased labour market competition resulting from immigration.arrow_forwardThe last three decades in the United States have been characterized by a very wide gap between the wages of those with more education and those with less. Suppose that workers eventually adjust to this gap by investing more in education, with the result that the wages of less skilled workers rise faster than those of the more-skilled (so that the wage gap between the two falls). How would a decline in the wage gap between the skilled and the unskilled affect immigration to the United States?arrow_forwardIs there an obvious trend in global immigration?arrow_forward
