Policy makers apply skilled labor gap
projections to their immigration policies in a number of
ways including: differentiating immigration policies by
region, based on skills supply and demand mismatches;
introducing more flexibility in admissions policies to
acquire specific skills; and designing programs to actively
attract immigrants with specific needed skills to specific
occupations. Challenges in projecting an economy's
demand for skilled foreign labor may include bias and gaps
in available data sources, as well as difficulty determining
the most appropriate methodology and impediments posed by
imperfect methodological assumptions. A difficult economic
context may provide further challenges to projecting and
filling foreign labor needs. |
