Most were young married males and most left their families behind. This paper investigates the effects of out-migration of a family member on the household members left behind. Female employment rates are lower in remittance-receiving households as is female unpaid family help in rural areas and low-wage employment in urban areas. More children go to school in remittance-receiving households although though this does not guarantee a higher eventual educational level. The families of Middle East migrants in rural areas report a higher work load than do the families of rural-urban migrants. The departure of workers has negatively affected output more markedly in rural than in urban households; family-based enterprises are more prevalent in rural areas. The families of Middle East migrants have increased spending power; however a major part of the remittances is used for consumption. Investments are made predominantly in housing. Some clinical evidence suggests that some females suffer from psychological disorders and that delinguency has increased among the children of some migrants. Emigration has both positive and negative effects on the families left behind.","PeriodicalId":395667,"journal":{"name":"Asian Labor Migration","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116083341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The underlying general policy is to maximize the export of labor which has been very beneficial economically. This paper classifies policies as 1) legislative and administrative arrangements for international labor migration 2) bilateral agreements and dispute settlement means 3) migrant welfare and facilities 4) the welfare of families left behind 5) maximization of remittances and their productive use and 6) skill regulation through training programs and restrictions. The volume of labor migration has become so great that all of the labor sending countries except Sri Lanka have set up bureaus to deal with it. Appointing and regulating private recruiting agencies is an important part of their work. So far due to the intense competition for jobs some individual sending countries have entered into bilateral agreement with some host countries but sending countries have not formed a consortium. Most countries have appointed labor attaches in the major host countries their influence varies. Sending countries have set up programs to lessen red tape and ease the emigration process. Although the welfare of families left behind is problematic few policies exist in this area. Maximizing remittances is a policy of all the sening countries. Skill regulation has been accomplished by 1) restricting the emigration of workers with needed skills and 2) instituting crash training programs in high demand skills. The 2 principal policy directions are 1) maximizing emigration and remittances and 2) ensuring the welfare of workers before and after emigration especially by supervising recruiting agents and work contracts.","PeriodicalId":395667,"journal":{"name":"Asian Labor Migration","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115311121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
