Abstract
There has been a rapid growth in net migration to the UK in recent years. The research reported here was undertaken to address a gap in understanding of the size and profile of migrant workers and their
motivation for location in the West Midlands region. It was also designed to assess labour market and economic impacts of migrant workers and implications for skills and training provision.
The report combines findings from a desk-based study (published separately) and analysis of secondary data sources (covering the period from 2001 to 2006/7) with primary research (undertaken in 2007) encompassing:
• a quantitative survey of 223 employers of migrant workers in the West Midlands (hereinafter referred to
as the West Midlands Migrant Worker Employer Survey)
• a qualitative survey of over 40 third-party organisations involved with supporting migrant workers
• a quantitative survey of 712 migrant workers in the West Midlands (referred to as the West Midlands
Migrant Worker Survey); and
• a qualitative survey of migrant workers using 8 mini focus groups.
