We have seen an influx of immigrants in our city, and they are taking away jobs from native citizens. How can we prevent this from happening?

It is important to remember that immigrants bring valuable skills, knowledge and experiences that can positively contribute to their local community, and should not be seen as a burden. To prevent immigrants from taking “native” jobs, government and community programs should focus on providing the skills needed so native citizens can compete in the job market. Increasing education opportunities for those already living in an area could reduce this perceived competition. Furthermore, making sure the migrant workers understand how to access existing social programs such as health care and unemployment benefits can ensure both sides are respected within labour laws.

One of the steps we can take to reduce the competition for jobs is to invest in training programs for our existing citizens. This will allow them to gain qualifications that are highly sought after in the job market, and make them more competitive for available roles. Alternatively, providing pathways to citizenship or new visas for immigrants may also help us achieve an appropriate balance of job seekers and vacancies. By creating legal channels that provide stability and clarity, more opportunities should become available both to immigrant workers and native citizens alike.
