A Comparative Static Model of the Relationship between Immigration and the Short-Run Job Prospects of Unemployed Residents

In Canada, immigration does not significantly increase unemployment in the long run, but past unemployment may cause (less) immigration in the short run.

Continued skilled immigration in Australia positively impacts employment and welfare, with the key issue being the effect on employment rather than wages.

Australian immigration policy and unemployment

Immigrant groups experience longer unemployment periods in Switzerland due to factors like weaker work values, smaller informal networks, and lower psychological well-being, but other factors like discrimination by employers also contribute.
