There are many stereotypes about immigration influence on labour market. Many
countries, because of the fear of negative effects of newcomers arrival, decided to
introduce legal obstacles which were to limit their inflow. There are social groups which
welcome new immigrants enthusiastically. Undoubtedly, these are employers who think
that immigration will affect the fall of production costs and the cut of wages. However,
a lot of governments are trying to limit immigration. All the relations are best seen
on the example of one of the ‘largest’ immigration economies of the world, that is,
Australian economy. Very low unemployment and inflation rates, high Gross Domestic
Product combined with big hospitality of Australians, breathtaking views and a lot of free
areas make Australia one of the most popular destination countries among immigrants.
Australian immigration policy reduces negative results of economic crises and helps in
reaching higher level of economic development than countries which are not destination
countries of immigrants, thanks to correlation with labour market needs. The author will
present analyses concerning australian labour market extended with the latest scientific
findings conducted by author and Australian migration researchers: Melissa Bond, Noel
Gatson, Neville Norman, Thorsten Stromback, Peter J. Lloyd, Lynne S. Williams, Bruce
Chapman and Deborah Cobb-Clark.
