A recent study published in Nature reveals that immigrant workers earn on average 17.9% less than native populations across various countries. In Germany specifically, immigrants, including those in the second generation, earn approximately 20% less than native workers. The primary cause of this wage gap is not direct pay discrimination but rather limited access to high-paying industries and professions. This restricted access accounts for about three-quarters of the pay disparity. The findings highlight systemic barriers in labor markets across Europe and North America that prevent immigrants from securing well-compensated jobs despite having comparable qualifications to natives.

Immigrant workers, on average, are earning 17.9% less than a country’s native population, according to a paper in @Nature. Three-quarters of the pay gap between the two correspond to a lack of accessible high-paying jobs for immigrants. https://t.co/fXZYlRIlTe https://t.co/Q0Jj8jzlnR
Zuwanderer verdienen in Deutschland auch in der zweiten Generation deutlich weniger als Einheimische. Eine Studie zeigt, dass der Hauptgrund für die Lohnlücke vor allem im eingeschränkten Zugang zu gut bezahlten Branchen und Berufen liegt. https://t.co/C1Tz5Noi63
