This study examines the impact of inflows of foreign workers on Korean natives’ employment through the Employment Permit System, the basis of Korea’s system by which low-skilled immigrants are introduced. Using National Employment Insurance data, analyses reveal that the adjustment cost related to the introduction of foreign workers was not substantial over the 2004-2005 period. However, a substitution effect exists between the employment of foreign and native workers in the service industry and among less-educated natives. The results suggest that policy assistance is needed to lessen the impacts caused by inflows of foreign workers on a sector-by-sector basis.
Abstract
This study examines the impact of inflows of foreign workers on Korean natives’ employment through the Employment Permit System, the basis of Korea’s system by which low-skilled immigrants are introduced. Using National Employment Insurance data, analyses reveal that the adjustment cost related to the introduction of foreign workers was not substantial over the 2004-2005 period. However, a substitution effect exists between the employment of foreign and native workers in the service industry and among less-educated natives. The results suggest that policy assistance is needed to lessen the impacts caused by inflows of foreign workers on a sector-by-sector basis.
