dc.description.abstractIn Western European countries where immigration rates are rising and labour shortages persist, the former could potentially serve as a solution to the latter. We examine the impact of an exogenous increase in migrant workers on occupational shortages in 14 Western European countries over the period 2006- 2018. We construct an occupational shortage indicator that includes five components representing supply and demand for each country and occupation at the 2-digit level each year. In our model, which assesses the influence of the migrant share on the occupational shortage index and identifies occupations facing shortages, we show that immigration flows reduce occupational shortages, with a more pronounced effect observed for migrants from non-EU countries. By recognising the contribution of migrants to addressing occupational shortages, policymakers can implement more effective strategies for managing migration flows and harnessing the potential of migrant workers not only in the EU but globally.
