Discrimination in the labour market: nationality, ethnicity and the recession
研究爱尔兰不同国籍-种族群体在2004年经济繁荣期与2010年严重衰退期的工作歧视变化，发现非爱尔兰国民歧视率更高且群体间差异显著，但自报歧视并未随衰退增加。
Previous research shows that immigrants, in common with other groups that suffer disadvantage in the labour market, are more vulnerable during recession. However, little research has focused on the impact of the Great Recession on work-related discrimination. We examine the extent to which discrimination varies across different national-ethnic groups in Ireland, and whether discrimination increased between 2004, during an economic boom, and 2010, in the midst of a severe recession. Our analysis draws on two large-scale nationally representative surveys on the experience of labour market discrimination. We find that overall non-Irish nationals do experience higher rates of work-based discrimination and that there is substantial variation in discrimination across national-ethnic groups. However we find no evidence to suggest that self-reported discrimination increased during the recession.
