The Place of Syrian Migrants in the Labor Market and Their Socio-Economic Status in Turkey

Öz

Migration has both positive and negative effects on local population and on migrants themselves. “Working life relations” and “economic issues”, which are at the center of modern life, have an important place in the social adaptation and integration of migrants. In this study, the issue of “migration” and “immigration” has been evaluated as a multidimensional phenomenon based on the relevant literature. Within the context of the social potential of Syrian refugees along with economic elements, the role of immigrant entrepreneurship in labor markets, and the social adaptation and integration process have been interrogated in the article. According to the findings of long-term and comprehensive research reports, it has been seen that “migration” is a driving factor of social development; especially migration for economic reasons can make significant contributions to the destination countries destination countries for economic reasons. In many countries, international migrant workers constitute an important part of the labor force. Labor migration for employment both within and between countries is becoming increasingly dynamic. International migrant workers make up 4.9% of the global labor force. Inequality in the international migrant worker population persists, both in terms of gender and country of origin. Statistical data show that women migrant workers face more economic and social barriers in the country of origin. The problem of unemployment in labor markets in Türkiye has a historical background. However, with the mass migration of Syrians since 2011, the “unemployment problem” has been debated more and voiced by the actors of the political sphere. In this study, as the data in the relevant literature reveal, it has been determined that the majority of Syrian asylum-seekers in Türkiye are low-income earners; and that various injustices are experienced through their labor; that most of them are involved in unregistered work life; and that furthermore they work in labor-intensive sectors such as ‘textile, construction, and agriculture’.
