Much of the existing research on temporary foreign workers (TFWs) in Canada focuses on agricultural labour, live-in caregivers, and nurses, but little attention has been given to the trends in the growing accommodations and food services, construction, or manufacturing industries in the prairies. Indeed, the growth of TFWs in key sectors of Saskatchewan’s economy warrants further research, according to Andrew Stevens, Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Business Administration. This is the focus of his pilot study that has received $4,988.80 through the SSHRC General Research Grant Fund. The research aims to provide a greater understanding of the implications surrounding the Temporary Foreign Workers Program for employers, policy makers, unions, workers, and foreign workers themselves in the province. Economic and labour market trends suggest that more information about this delicate subject is needed.
