    ok im really panicking for this exam... like for the migration essay, i wrote about 1)it could help improve skill shortages as skilled workers could come over, but then discrimination could occur so the demand for these workers will be low (did a diagram showing discrimination) 2) could cause people who were born in the country to potentially be discouraged from work as skilled workers come over with high qualifications and could potentially take jobs but then the skilled migrants would take higher jobs so this wouldnt effect low skilled indiginous workers. 3) depends on state of economy as if demand for labour is low due to a recession then more migrants would cause more unemployment, but if in boom migration good. then i said overall migration is good..... do you think that would get you any marks? thank the person who replies haha so stressed

    I'm resitting this! Completely failed in January due to a number of circumstances...
    All I need is a C, really hoping there's going to be something on Minimum Wage or Trade Unions!
    I Know this thread is finished, but how detail do we need to know about NMW?
