This paper is part of a research project that was commissioned by the MAC to provide an independent analysis and assessment of the nature and micro-level determinants of staff shortages and the employment of migrants in key sectors and occupations of the UK economy. The project includes this overview paper plus seven sectoral review papers on staff shortages and immigration in agriculture (Scott 2008), food processing (Geddes 2008), construction (Chan, Clarke and Dainty 2008), health care (Bach 2008), social care (Moriarty et al 2008), financial services (Jones 2008) and the hospitality sector (Lucas and Mansfield 2008) in the UK.
