The OECD’s latest International Migration Outlook report explores recent developments in migration movements and the labour market inclusion of immigrants in OECD countries. The report reveals that permanent migration to OECD countries reached a record high of 6.1 million in 2022, marking a 26% increase from 2021. It cites rising labour migration as one contributing factor, as migrant workers have helped lower labour and skills shortages in OECD countries.
This year’s edition also includes a special focus on the labour market integration of migrant mothers and fertility patterns among migrant populations.
