Chapter 8 Interactions between Local and Migrant Workers at the Workplace

Gil Epstein and Yosef Mealem

A chapter in Migration and Culture, 2010, pp 193-203 from Emerald Group Publishing Limited

Abstract: In this chapter, we consider the interaction between local workers and migrants in the production process of a firm. Both local workers and migrants can invest effort in assimilation activities to increase the assimilation of the migrants into the firm and so increase their interaction and production activities. We consider the effect the relative size (in the firm) of each group and the cost of activities has on the assimilation process of the migrants.
