  • Title: The impact of immigration on a depressed labour market: the South Australian experience.
    Author: Harrison DS.
    Journal: Econ Rec; 1984 Mar; 60(168):57-67. PubMed ID: 12339488.
    Abstract:
    "This paper examines the impact of immigration on the relatively depressed labour market in South Australia during the 1976-81 inter-censal period. The findings indicate that recently arrived immigrants have experienced exceedingly high unemployment rates. However, this is consistent with the view that immigration generates additional job opportunities for Australian residents (except in the manufacturing industry and trades occupations), and that immigrants experience high unemployment rates specifically because they have been unable to compete a 'fair share' of jobs away from residents already entrenched in the labour market."
