The employment of foreign worker may lead to several impacts either positively or negatively. Most of them will bring positive impacts to their organization. The availability of the foreign workers in Malaysia is one other valid reason for the local employers to hire them. This study was conducted in Cadbury Confectionery Malaysia in order to determine the factors influencing hiring foreign workers and its impact towards the organization performance, which is in term of productivity. As being studied, it was found that there were several factors of foreign worker's employment such as the availability, education level and working conditions. However, the findings also show that the availability and education level have a positive relationship to the organization performance. While for the acceptance of working condition, the findings found that there was a negative relationship towards organization performance. Thus, it is recommended that for future research to examine other factors of foreign worker employment towards organization performance, such as working experience and wages in other industries in Malaysia.

Despite its great contributions to the country, this survey shows that most of the visitors would not consider working in '3D' industries and 57% of them also agreed that the young generation nowadays stayed away from '3D' industries. This concurs with a research conducted by Achim, Rusdi, and Amin (2017); Ahmad et al., (2018); Malay Mail (2016) which found that Malaysians were reluctant to work in '3D' industries due to some reasons, such as unsatisfactory human rights provisions. ... Analysing the Awareness of Generation Y Youth on '3D' Industries Through '3D' Info System Article Full-text available * Dec 2020 * Emy Noor Diana Zulkiflee Emy Noor Diana Zulkiflee * Fadilah Puteh Fadilah Puteh * Jasmine Ahmad Jasmine Ahmad 3D' is an acronym for dirty, dangerous and difficult. Also perceived as labour intensive, excessive physical work, hazardous work environment, low wages and little security, '3D' industries today have a significant contribution to the Malaysian economy and a potential to create vast employment opportunities. Unfortunately, '3D' industries are shunned by Malaysians particularly among Generation Y (Gen Y) youth. Lack of awareness among Malaysians about '3D' industries is reflected from the high number of foreign workforce engaged in '3D' industries and this is among the reasons for employers to hire them. It is important to know how well Malaysians understand about these industries. Therefore, this paper intends to gauge the level of understanding and perception of Malaysians about '3D' industries through an instrument named '3D' Info System. This survey was conducted among 33 visitors in IIDEX 2019 at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam. The result shows that 55% of Malaysian visitors have a neutral understanding of '3D' industries, 33% have a poor understanding and only 12% have a good understanding about '3D' industries in Malaysia. Thus, it is recommended that it is vital to create awareness and attract Malaysian job seekers especially Gen Y youth to gain knowledge about '3D' industries in Malaysia.

Unfortunately, ‘3D’ industries are shunned away by Malaysians particularly among the Generation Y (Gen Y) youths. Lack of awareness among Malaysians about ‘3D’ industries is reflected from the high numbers of foreign workforce employed in various 3D sectors. It is important to know how well Malaysian understands about these industries. Therefore, this paper intends to gauge on the level of understanding and perception of Malaysian regarding ‘3D’ industries through an instrument named ‘3D’ Info System. This survey was conducted towards 33 visitors of Invention, Innovation and Design Expo (IIDEX) 2019 held at Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM), Shah Alam Selangor. The result shows that 55% of the respondents have neutral understanding on 3D industries, 33% have poor understanding and only 12% have good understanding about ‘3D’ industries in Malaysia. This paper recommends a concerted effort to create awareness about 3D industries and it prospects as well as creative ways to attract local talents especially Gen Y youth to contribute productively in ‘3D’ industries in Malaysia.

Diepenbroek View The Impact of Foreign Workers on Labour Productivity in Malaysian Manufacturing Sector Article Full-text available * Jun 2011 * Zaleha Mohd Noor Zaleha Mohd Noor * Noraini Isa * R. Said R. Said * Putra Malaysia The growing presence of foreign workers in Malaysia can be explained by excess demand for labour combine with rapid economic growth, as well as the cheaper cost of foreign workers. Besides, industrialization also brought the foreign workers into Malaysia. Thus, when the foreign workers enter the labour force, they have many possible outcomes on labour market issues and productivity. This study determines the impact of foreign workers on labour productivity. Besides, the relationship between domestic and foreign workers as well as their contribution on Malaysian Manufacturing sector growth also investigated. The Cobb-Douglas production function is used to derive the model specification in this study. The results in this study show that foreign labours have positive and significant impact on labour productivity. Further, the study also reveals that foreign labours are neither substitutes nor complements for domestic labours. View (BUTTON) Show abstract Measuring Organizational Performance: Towards Methodological Best Practice Article Full-text available * Jun 2009 * J MANAGE * Pierre Richard Pierre Richard * Timothy Devinney Timothy Devinney * George Yip George Yip * Gerry Johnson Gerry Johnson Organizational performance is one of the most important constructs in management research. Reviewing past studies reveals a multidimensional conceptualization of organizational performance related predominately to stakeholders, heterogeneous product market circumstances, and time. A review of the operationalization of performance highlights the limited effectiveness of commonly accepted measurement practices in tapping this multidimensionality. Addressing these findings requires researchers to (a) possess a strong theoretical rationale on the nature of performance (i.e., theory establishing which measures are appropriate to the research context) and (b) rely on strong theory as to the nature of measures (i.e., theory establishing which measures should be combined and the method for doing so). All management research on performance should explicitly address these two requirements. The authors conclude with a call for research that examines triangulation using multiple measures, longitudinal data and alternative methodological formulations as methods of appropriately aligning research contexts with the measurement of organizational performance.

Following these studies, this study focuses only on the individual-level factors, such as job satisfaction, affective commitment, public service motivation, and organizational citizenship behavior. It empirically tests the effects of these variables on organizational performance in the public sector of Korea. When the survey data of 1,739 public employees in government agencies were analyzed, the hypothesized relationships in the proposed model were confirmed. I discuss the survey results in light of previous studies, especially those of Brewer and Selden.

We review the contexts that frame organizational performance as a dependent variable with specific emphasis on how it is operationalized and measured. The research contexts of past studies are firmly anchored around a multidimensional conceptualization of organizational performance related predominately to stakeholders, heterogeneous market circumstances, and time. The review of the operationalization and measurement of performance highlights the limited effectiveness of commonly accepted measurement practices in tapping this multidimensionality. By synthesizing the literature, the foundations are laid for the improved measurement of performance in management research. We conclude with a call for research that examines the effectiveness of triangulation utilizing multiple measures, applies longitudinal data and brings to bear alternative methodological formulations as means of appropriately aligning research contexts with the measurement of organizational performance. Validating these measurement approaches is an important agenda for further research.

Martinek In a previous Regional Economist article, we remarked that in order to assess the costs and benefits of immigration (both legal and illegal) one has to consider the distribution of skills in the foreign-born population and compare it with the distribution of skills among U.S.-born workers. 1 Although an influx of low-skilled immigrants tends to negatively affect the wages of similarly skilled ... [Show full abstract] U.S.-born workers, this influx could increase the productivity of medium-skilled workers, who comprise the majority of U.S.-born workers, if their skills complement each other’s. Not only is the distribution of skills among the foreign-born population widely different from that of their U.S.-born counterparts, but the choices these immigrants make when deciding where to live in the U.S. also differ considerably from those choices made by natives. Furthermore, for similar levels of skill or education, immigrant workers tend to choose different occupations than native workers do. Identifying the differences in the composition of skills across local markets can help analyze the impact of immigration because an increase in the number of immigrants may have different effects across locations. There may also be effects unrelated to the effects on wages. For example, low-skilled immigrants have had a positive impact on the labor supply decisions of high-skilled U.S.-born women. For another example, high-skilled immigrants have boosted the innovation rate in the U.S. Geographic Distribution Read more Article Full-text available Ségrégation urbaine et intégration sociale January 2004 * Jo�l Maurice * Eloi Laurent * Jean Paul Fitoussi Jean Paul Fitoussi We show that immigrant managers are substantially more likely to hire immigrants than are native managers.

With the goal to shed light on the debate by understanding the group of farm workers, this paper examines ... [Show full abstract] the wage and working condition differentials among the sub-groups of U.S. agricultural workers. This paper investigates whether there are different wage disparity and working condition gaps among agricultural workers of different employment eligibility (authorized or unauthorized) and migrant type (non-migrant or migrant). Data source is the latest 2002 NAWS conducted by the Department of Labor. This research builds upon the existing literature of different determinants that contribute to wage and working condition differentials. New contribution to the literature lies in the researchs utilizing more recent data as well as tying it to the current immigration policy reform.

This article describes the origins and development of the guest labor system and analyzes the effects it has had on Taiwan's ... [Show full abstract] economy and on workers both guest and local. The author analyzes the economic dimensions of migrant labor in the context of state efforts to promote employers' interests within a framework of class compromises and examines the response of Tai-wan's labor unions to the growing availability of cheaper foreign labor. Opposition to the mandatory food and accommodation fees imposed on guest workers led the state to encourage employers to recruit guest workers directly from the countries of origin in order to eliminate brokers' fees, the greatest source of migrant hardship. The author shows, however, that direct hiring has failed due to kickback arrangements involving employers, brokers, and state officials. This has brought the class basis of Taiwan's guest worker policy into sharp focus and engendered an intense struggle by guest workers.
