Authors : Main Al-Dalahmeh and Krisztina Dajnoki

Abstract: The effect of migration on the labour market has become a significant topic over the last decades, particulary in the labour markets of developed countries. This study investigates whether migration affects the labor market in the destination countries by asking the main research question which is how migration affects labour market aspects, negatively or positively. It also aims to provide a theoretical discussion about the topic of the study. A systematic review is used as a methodology to review the research questions and their roots in a much better way. The study concluded that migration has some negative and positive effectson native worker’s wages, depending on the countries taken into consideration. Additionally, it has been also substantiated that less-skilled migrants are one of the reasons for lower wages and on the other hand, educated migrants help the destination countries to have a better economy and high wages for native workers.
