abstract: 'In this paper, primary and secondary sector employment corresponds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
broadly to `good'' and `bad'' jobs. Previous studies indicate that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
non-English-speaking background (NESB) migrant women are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
under-represented in `good jobs'' but none of those studies evaluates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their chance of finding `good jobs'' in Australia. This study estimates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their probability of getting good jobs and compares this with that of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Australian-born women. The probability of securing good jobs for each of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
these groups is also estimated separately, based on a new general probit
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
model, after classifying women into primary and secondary sector
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment from their occupational categories and incomes using 2016
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Australian Census data. It showed that NESB migrant women had
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significantly lesser probability of securing primary sector employment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared to Australian-born women. While this difference is narrowing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
over time, NESB migrant women''s progress in accessing `good jobs'' has
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
been slow. Improving English proficiency, education, recognition of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
overseas qualifications and experience can significantly increase their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
chances of attaining good jobs. This study provides an exact estimate of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the probability of securing good jobs for both groups and the relevance
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of different determinants for this difference so that proper actions can
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be taken to improve the employment situation of NESB migrant women.'
