BODY
IMMIGRATION
The term immigration explains about the people who travel from nation to another in order to
grab the better job opportunities and gain work experience. The UK is said to be the preferable
destination for the individual who wishes to work in other nation as immigrants. It has been
noted that in past two decades the immigration has increased in a tremendous amount within
the UK as the people belonging to the UK countries mostly travel as immigrants in the UK. The
increasing number of immigrants has majorly impacted negatively to the local residents within
the UK as it affects the job opportunities, income level and life quality of local residents of UK
(Hollifield, et al. 2014). It has been challenging for any country to maintain an appropriate
balance among the immigration level and the influence that globalization has. Immigration has
both negative as well as positive impact on the monetary of the nation as positively legal
immigration is the reason to get experienced people n the country that helps in productive
results ultimately enhancing the finical status of the nation. On the other hand, illegal
immigrants are a threat to domestic people as it leads to high antipathy and also increases the
competition level in the business class people. The immigration is the reason of increasing an
effective workforce and diversified working pattern because the new people with different
working style will enlarge the view of business and supply of information by an individual
belonging to variable culture and tradition.
Immigration has been a topic of apprehension among the domestic residents in the UK and it is
influencing them in many aspects. For example, the immigrants could be competency such as
engineers, scholars, doctors etc, while if there are people with a low competency that they will
need proper training that will lead to cause a high amount of investments. Also, such workforce
will lessen the work quality and damage the working culture and will lead to demoralizing the
skilled people. While competent people will have new ideas for providing services that will tend
to accomplish the needs of the domestic people.
