Some 10 million migrant workers cross national borders each year. This book examines the businesses that move low-skilled workers, explaining recruitment, remuneration, and retention, and showing how national borders increase recruitment costs. Tackling the often murky world of labour migration, it fills an important void in this fast-growing field.
