Outsourcing to private actors

Outsourcing means to externalise, to shift, tasks, operative tasks or processes to a third party. Results displayed under this category refer to any processes related to the outsourcing of the application and implementation of state policies, laws, legislation, regulation or measures to non-state sectors (either private for profit or third sector for no profit). In the area of migration, outsourcing can occur, for example, for border surveillance to private actors (companies), or for the management and provision of reception services (to civil society and non-governmental organisations or the private sector), or the management of detention centers for migrants.

Demography, migration, and the labour market in Bahrain

Authors Françoise DE BEL-AIR
Description
Mid-2013, estimates of Bahrain s population stood at 1,253,191 persons, of whom 638,361 (51 per cent) were foreign nationals. Most were from Asia (85 per cent) and especially from India (half of all foreign residents). Eighty per cent of expatriates are employed. They account for 77 per cent of the employed population and 81 per cent of the private sector s workforce. Asians are overwhelmingly involved in services and blue collar occupations, while Arabs more often fill managerial posts. Immigration flows to the Kingdom increased significantly over the 2000s, fuelled by high oil prices and the ensuing boom in the construction and services sectors. This demonstrates the difficulty to reconcile labour reforms, and especially, the Bahrainisation of the work force, with the maximisation of economic productivity.

Demography, migration and labour market in Saudi Arabia

Authors Françoise DE BEL-AIR
Description
Saudi Arabia is a prime destination and source of remittances from workers for many countries in Asia and the Arab world. As of mid-2013, expatriates made up 32 percent of the Kingdom's population, most of them coming from South Asia. They accounted for 56.5 percent of the employed population and 89 percent of the private sector workforce. Since September 2011, and in spite of a spurt in foreign labour recruitment starting in the mid-2000s, a voluntary policy called Nitaqat aims at 'Saudising' the Kingdom's workforce. The most recent data also show the scale of the irregular migration phenomenon in Saudi Arabia: the amnesty campaign which started in April 2013 allowed 4.7 million foreign workers to regularise their status, while an ongoing crackdown on illegals forced one million to leave the Kingdom in 2013 alone, of which (as of November 30, 2013) 547,000 were deported.

Demography, migration, and the labour market in Oman

Authors Françoise DE BEL-AIR
Description
As of May 27, 2015, estimates of Oman’s total population stood at 4,187,516 persons, of whom 1,849,412 (44.2 per cent) were foreign nationals. Foreign workers are overwhelmingly from the Asian subcontinent: Indians, Bangladeshis and Pakistanis together made up 87 per cent of the workforce in 2013. Eighty-two per cent of all foreign workers were employed in the private sector that year, and 12 per cent were filling managerial and “white collar” posts. The flow of foreign workers to Oman has been rising over the 2000s up till today. Lagging youth employment and rising poverty levels spurred popular protests in 2011 which slowed down economic diversification and the private sector’s development process. However, sectoral Omanisation quotas are now enforced and the hiring of Omani nationals in every business has become mandatory. Aggressive measures also target foreign residents in irregular situation which has led to several massive amnesty and deportation campaigns since 2010.

Migration Governance and Asylum Crises

Principal investigator Lennart Olsson (), Mine Islar (), Anne Jerneck ()
Description
In our part of the project (Work package 6) will investigate the responses given to migration at different scales. It aims to provide an in-depth understanding of responses provided by actors ranging from urban to rural contexts, from transnational city-city collaborations to local community initiatives. Local scale is one of the first spaces where migration needs to be governed. Cities different than governments include networks of public and private sector leaders and institutions that include citizen initiatives, trade unions, private companies and universities, among others. A multi-scalar approach will be implemented by examining three different types of cases (1) The case of urban-rural development in Sweden, via international migration, (2) The case of local migration ecosystems in Northern Italy, (3) The case of Greek islands in the Aegean Sea, (4) The case of transnational collaborations and social innovations. By engaging in multi-scalar case studies, the aim is to cover both official and unofficial responses to the so called “refugee crisis”, emphasizing the role of the local authorities in facilitating (or hindering) the application of national policies on reception, redistribution and inclusion/exclusion of newcomers as well as the increasing role of communities and innovations in shaping the migration response by also showing opportunities. These areas, with the potential benefits of interdisciplinary research, will seek synergies between the following two goals; SDG Goal 9 on building resilient infrastructure as well as Goal 11 on inclusive cities. By doing so, we will inform policy making in these areas and potentially contribute to the implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Libyan Legislation on Labour: Political Tool or Legalization?

Authors Azza K. MAGHUR
Description
Libya with its 4,000 km of land and 1,700 km of coast frontiers is one of Africa’s main hubs for irregular migrants, especially those en route to Europe. A rich country with high oil revenues, Libya has, on its southern borders, poverty-stricken and unstable sub Saharan countries; and is an attractive destination for neighboring Arab states workers, seeking employment. Libyan foreign policy during the late eighties and the nineties, encouraged African and Arab irregular workers to come to Libya. Their presence was permissible. However, once Libya became an irregular migration hub and certain internal problems came to the surface relating to irregular migration, Libya discovered its lack of legal instruments to face this reality. Moreover, the reactivation of the Libyan private sector after more than a decade of a dominant public sector, led to disorder in the rapidly developing labour market. In labour market terms, Libyan legislative policy was reactive rather than strategic. The Libyan government, including the Ministry of Manpower, issued decisions to better organize the work market, while laws issued in the 1970s and 1980s are still in force and clogging up the system. Moreover, decisions dating from periods of Arab and African enthusiasm remain operative. All this led to discrepancies in Libyan legislation. Libya today is in need of strategic long-term legislative policy towards foreign workers in general, and those in the private sector in particular. Résumé Avec ses 4 000 kilomètres de frontières terrestres et 1 700 kilomètres de frontières côtières, la Libye est un pivot pour les migrants irréguliers, en particulier pour ceux en partance vers l’Europe. Pays riche du fait de ses revenus pétroliers, ses frontières méridionales sont bordées par des Etats subsahariens instables et enserrés dans la pauvreté, et elle constitue une destination attractive pour les travailleurs des pays arabes voisins à la recherche d’un emploi. La politique étrangère libyenne des années 80 et 90 encouragea les travailleurs irréguliers africains et arabes à venir dans le pays. Leur présence était tolérée. Cependant, lorsque la Libye devint un nœud de la migration irrégulière et que certains problèmes internes remontèrent à la surface en ce qui concerne la migration irrégulière, elle découvrit son manque d’instruments juridiques pour faire face à la réalité. De plus, la réactivation du secteur privé libyen après plus d’une décennie de domination du secteur public créa un désordre sur le marché du travail alors en développement rapide. En termes de marché du travail, la politique législative libyenne était plus réactive que stratégique. Des décisions visant une meilleure organisation du marché du travail ont été adoptées par le gouvernement libyen, y compris le ministère de la main d’œuvre, tandis que les lois des années 70 et 80 restent en vigueur et grèvent le système. Les décisions datant des périodes d’enthousiasme arabe et africain demeurent elles aussi opérantes. Tout ceci conduisit à des contradictions dans la législation libyenne. La Libye a aujourd’hui besoin d’une politique législative stratégique sur le long terme concernant les travailleurs étrangers en général, et ceux du secteur privé en particulier.

Grip houden op publieke belangen. Onderzoek naar privatisering in het migratiebeleid

Authors The Dutch Advisory Committee on Migration Affairs (Adviescommissie voor Vreemdelingenzaken, ACVZ)
Description
Op verzoek van het kabinet heeft de adviesraad de rol van private actoren in het migratiebeleid onderzocht. De centrale vraag daarbij is geweest, hoe en met welke gevolgen privatisering plaatsvindt in het migratiebeleid. Drie casussen zijn voor het onderzoek geselecteerd en zijn in afzonderlijk deeladviezen eerder gepubliceerd. Op 1 juli 2021 is het syntheserapport ‘Grip houden op publieke belangen ‘ gepubliceerd dat de uitkomsten van de drie onderzochte casussen samenbrengt. De overheid blijkt bij het proces en de uitvoering van privatisering binnen het migratiebeleid op een drietal structurele punten duidelijk tekort te schieten: 1) Het borgen van publieke belangen 2) Het realiseren van adequaat toezicht om het gewenste resultaat te kunnen verzekeren en 3) het garanderen van rechtsbescherming. Het eerste advies in deze serie gaat over de verplichtingen bij immigratiecontrole die aan vervoerders (luchtvaartmaatschappijen en rederijen) zijn opgedragen op basis van regelgeving. Het tweede advies gaat over de begeleiding van innovatieve buitenlandse startup-ondernemers in Nederland, de zogenoemde startup-regeling. Het derde advies heeft als onderwerp de borging van de kwaliteit van het inburgeringsonderwijs. Bij het inburgeringsonderwijs is de overheid bijvoorbeeld tekortgeschoten bij het opstellen van kaders. Publieke waarden zijn niet juist geïdentificeerd en gewaarborgd en er is geen toezicht op kwaliteit en effectiviteit. Ook is er sprake van een gebrekkige rechtsbescherming van de inburgeraar. Bij de startup-regeling heeft de overheid eveneens de publieke belangen onvoldoende benoemd, waardoor geen borging mogelijk is. Het beoordelen van de innovativiteit van buitenlandse startup-ondernemingen is volledig aan een private partij (begeleider) overgelaten en de rechtsbescherming van de startup-ondernemer is daardoor beperkt. Uit het onderzoek naar de vervoerdersverplichtingen blijkt dat deze niet bijdragen aan de naleving van de internationale rechtsorde en slechts gericht zijn op het borgen van de nationale veiligheid en openbare orde. Er bestaat voor hen geen verplichting om de weigering van niet of onjuist gedocumenteerde passagiers die asielmotieven aanvoeren, voor te leggen aan de Immigratie- en Naturalisatiedienst. De rechtsbescherming van vreemdelingen komt daarmee in het geding. De drie onderzochte casussen betreffen steeds een andere fase in het migratiebeleid, kennen een andere vorm van privatisering en laten verschillende mechanismen zien om private actoren bij de behartiging van publieke belangen te betrekken. Deze aanpak geeft onderzoekstechnisch een zo compleet mogelijk beeld. De overheid moet volgens de adviesraad nadrukkelijk heroverwegen hoe om te gaan met privatisering binnen het migratiebeleid. Daarom beveelt de ACVZ aan om bij privatisering steeds minstens drie kerncriteria als uitgangspunt te gebruiken: Borging, Toezicht en Rechtsbescherming. Ook bestaande privatiseringen moet de overheid, volgens de adviesraad, op die manier opnieuw beoordelen. Alleen dan houdt de overheid de noodzakelijke grip op publieke belangen.

Demography, migration, and the labour market in the UAE

Authors Françoise DE BEL-AIR
Description
The objective of the paper is to draw a sketch of UAE’s population and migration dynamics, using the scarce data available from the federal and emirate-level statistical bureaus. In 2010, expatriates in the UAE were estimated to number 7,316,073 persons, twenty times the 1975’s figure of 356,343. Foreign nationals thus made up 88.5 per cent of the country’s total population; most were believed to come from Asia and especially from India. In the employed population, foreign nationals accounted for an even larger share (96 per cent of the Dubai’s employed population in 2011). Non-Emiratis comprised 40 per cent of the UAE’s public sector’s workforce in 2013, but as much as 99.5 per cent of those employed in the private sector. Unlike in other GCC states, a quarter of working expatriates were in managerial posts, employed across all activities’ spectrum. Expatriates’ demographic expansion mounted during the 2000s, a period of spectacular economic growth fuelled by soaring oil prices. Since 2008’s financial downturn, however, the economy recovered and the hiring of foreign workers has resumed, stimulated by large-scale projects such as Dubai’s Expo 2020. Nonetheless, reforms in immigration policies are now undertaken, fuelled by security concerns and pressures from human rights’ protection bodies. The reality of some expatriates’ settlement is also witnessed in numbers (expatriate children aged 0-14 outnumbered Emirati children already in 2005), while mixed marriages are acknowledged in policies: some naturalisations of children of Emirati mothers have been performed since 2011.
