    “Those who migrate to find work are
    involved in labor migration”

    KRITZ,
    2008
    There is no internationally accepted statistical definition of labor
    migration. However, the main actors in labor migration are migrant
    workers which the International Labor Organization (ILO) defines as:

    “… all international migrants who are


    currently employed or unemployed
    and seeking employment in their
    present country of residence.”
    Forces Behind Migration
     Push Factors are the dynamics within the country of origin which
    force people to emigrate such as war, famine, political oppression or
    population pressures.

     Pull Factors are characteristics of destination countries that attract


    immigrant wish to get better living and working conditions.

     Macro Level Processes: Overcharging issues such as political


    situations, laws and regulations between the countries to control
    migration. Changes in global economy can be counted as a macro
    factor.

     Micro Level Processes: Resources knowledge and understandings


    that migrant population has and activate.
    Migration is inevitable, necessary and
    highly deisrable - unkown
