Frequently asked questions

Q1. What are the contributions in "Department of economics university of cyprus ethnic minority immigrants and their children in britain" ?

This paper investigates educational attainment and economic behaviour of ethnic minority immigrants and their children in Britain. The authors examine possible explanations for these gaps. Further, British born ethnic minorities have lower employment propensities for the same wages than native born whites. 

Q2. What are the future works in "Department of economics university of cyprus ethnic minority immigrants and their children in britain" ?

The authors then explore some possible explanations for these differences. A better understanding of such mechanisms and how they relate to labour market outcomes for Britain ’ s ethnic minorities is an important agenda for future research. This suggests that inactivity is partly due to lower readiness to participate in the labour market. One important reason for observed differences, in particular in employment outcomes, may be related to particular views and attitudes about and specific engagement with the labour market. 

Q3. What is the reason for the lower labour force participation rates for some ethnic groups?

This suggests that the lower labour force participation rates for some ethnic groups (e.g. for Pakistani and Bangladeshi women) is largely due to their lower readiness to participate in the labour market, and less so because individuals do not find jobs or are being discriminated against. 

Q4. What is the reason for the lower employment rates for some British born ethnic minority groups?

the lower labour market participation rate for some British born ethnic minority groups may be partly explained by their lower readiness to participate in the labour market. 

Q5. What is the reason for the lower employment probabilities of ethnic minorities in general?

One reason for the lower employment probabilities of ethnic minorities in general, and somegroups in particular may be that individuals are discouraged and do not participate in the labour market. 

Q6. What is the percentage of first generation ethnic minority immigrants that falls into the “No qualification” category?

While the percentage of first generation ethnic minority immigrants that fall into the “High” educational category is 3.6 percentage points higher than that of white British born, the percentage that falls into the “No qualification” category is likewise 7.7 percentage points higher.
