guest worker

Explanation:

Guest worker programs have acquired great importance in developed countries to complement the local labor supply. According to the report of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) of 2005, between 1992 and 2000, the number of temporary workers in the United States quadrupled, in Australia it tripled and in the United Kingdom it doubled. Many European countries have also experienced a significant influx of these types of workers, even those that were traditionally classified as ejectors, such as Spain, Greece, Ireland, Italy and Portugal, and Eastern countries, such as the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and the Russian Federation, as well as many Asian, Latin American and African countries .

The programs focus on both low-skilled and highly skilled workers, especially those who work in the branches of high technological development, such as information technology, biotechnology and systems, among others. However, while all the facilities for the entry of highly qualified workers are given, there are increasingly greater restrictions on those who are not, with arguments such as that the economy does not need them, that there are enough local workers to carry them out, that their presence constitutes an obstacle to the technification of the economic branches in which they are hired, etc. That is why, given the economic requirements of this type of workforce and the refusal of local governments to recognize it, undocumented migration has increased significantly in the aforementioned countries. In the United States it is estimated that there are about 11 million unauthorized people among which the least qualified workers predominate .

The United States is the country of destination with more temporary migrants and definitive migrants or immigrants, and in accordance with general trends, it has intensified the mechanisms to import highly skilled temporary workers. In addition to constituting the largest contingent, these highly trained workers have a series of prerogatives regarding the period of stay, the facilities to endorse it and even become definitive migrants.
