Non-English Speaking Background (NESB)
Immigrant
Women in the Australian Workforce : A 10 page paper in
which the writer provides an overview of the problem and
research surrounding the issue of NESB. Critics have
suggested that large populations of non-English speaking
background (NESB) unemployed overburden the welfare and
social security systems, and in their attempts to enter the
workforce, also strain the country's remedial adult education
programs. But in light of maintained immigration levels over
the past decade, the path towards changing the negative
perceptions of NESB immigrants within the workforce is
imbedded not only in a system designed to enhance language
skill development, but also to dispel the myths related to their
lack of skills and their long-term impacts on the job market.
