The impact of bilateral and multilateral trade agreements on the human rights of migrants 2016, para. 32
Paragraph
Paragraph text
Even migrants with permanent status experience labour market disadvantages, discrimination, xenophobia and ill-treatment. Approximately 16 per cent of migrants employed in OECD countries are in low-wage jobs, compared to 7 per cent of nationals. This is not owing to low educational levels or training, as corresponding data indicates that many migrant workers are overqualified.
Legal status
Non-negotiated soft law
Body
Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants
