The presence of migrant workers has become a central feature of
labour markets in highly developed countries. The International
Labour Organisation estimates that in 2013 there were 112 million
resident migrant workers in the 58 highest-income countries, who
made up 16% of the workforce. Non-resident workers have also
increasingly become part of the labour available for employment in
other states, often on a temporary basis. This work takes a
thematic and comparative approach to examine the profound
implications of contemporary labour migration for employment law
regimes in highly developed countries. In so doing, it aims to
promote greater recognition of labour migration-related questions,
and of the interests of migrant workers, within employment law
scholarship. The work comprises original analyses by leading
scholars of migration and employment law at the European Union
level, and in Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands,
Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States. The specific
position of migrant workers is addressed, for example as regards
equality of treatment, or the position in employment law of migrant
workers without a right to work. The work also explores the effects
of migration levels and patterns upon general employment law –
including the law relating to collective bargaining, and remedies
against exploitation.
