abstract: 'The purpose of this paper is to analyse the effect of the 2007-2008
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
economic and financial crisis on the levels of employment and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployment of skilled migrants from Latin America and the Caribbean
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(LAC), as well as their conditions of labour insertion and levels of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income, in order to identify patterns of occupational segregation and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wage inequality according to their participation in the US labour
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
market. This analysis was developed using a comparative perspective in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
two ways: on the one hand, comparing skilled migrants from LAC to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
skilled migrant population from other regions of the world and to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
native skilled population and, on the other hand, by analysing these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
indicators pre-crisis and post-crisis. The information source employed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in this study was the March supplements of the Current Population Survey
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2006-2012. Our findings indicate that the crisis affected the entire
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
skilled population in the USA and particularly the migrant population.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This impact is stronger among LAC women because they are the ones at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
greatest disadvantage, a situation that worsened following the crisis.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Skilled migrants from LAC are substantially more segregated on the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
occupational structure than other migrants, and they increased its
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
concentration in medium-skilled occupations. The study also found that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
skilled migrants from LAC are underrepresented in professional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
occupations. Copyright (c) 2015 John Wiley \& Sons, Ltd.'
