For immigrants, moving to a new country is
a pretty big task. It means having to deal with all the uncertainties that come
with being in a new place. They have to deal with a new culture, new people,
new places, and a whole lot more of new experiences that are far different from
what they have grown up with. One of the things that worry immigrants when they
get to a new place is if there would be enough job opportunities for them
there.
Many immigrants actually try and move to a
new country because they are not satisfied with things happening in their own
country. For example, someone may go to a new country to find better job
opportunities and help bring home the bacon for his or her family. That is why,
in Canada, immigrants are definitely happy to know that the country has been
able to record really low unemployment rates for immigrants. This means that
there are plenty of opportunities for those who are planning on venturing as an
immigrant in the country.
Immigrants
and the labor market
Statistics Canada, the branch of the Canadian government that deals with data and such, has new information based on data
that they have acquired. According to them, the labor market in Canada is now
getting more and more immigrants there. And those immigrants are getting
employed in the country. In fact, it seems like the total percentage of
immigrants in the labor market is continuing to rise. More and more employers
are also going with immigrants as well as local workers in terms of employees.
The report has been released just last 24th
of December by Statistics Canada. According to that report, the level of
unemployment in the country in terms of immigrant employment has been going
down. In fact, the lowest level that has been recorded is this one. The lowest
rate of unemployment among immigrants has been last recorded back in 2006. This
one is the newest and lowest number so far. This is also a good thing as it
means that opportunities are opening up more and more in Canada and the locals
and the immigrants are benefiting from this.
The
numbers of unemployment for immigrants
A year ago, Canada has been able to note an
unemployment rate for immigrants in the country at around 6.4%. This is only
for all of those immigrants in the country who are of legal age for working.
This is a really low number and a good one at that. It is also quite
interesting to note that for the locals, the unemployment rate for the same
period has fallen to just around 5%. This definitely shows that unemployment in
Canada is pretty low and immigrants and locals surely are quite lucky to be
living here.
