Housing Minister Sean Fraser said Sunday that the federal government will curb the number of temporary foreign workers (TFWs) coming into the country after a post-COVID surge that some researchers say has driven up youth and immigrant unemployment rates.

But he acknowledged that the dynamic is different now that there are signs of stress in the labour market.

Ethnically diverse young people in Amsterdam, especially those without a diploma, are struggling to enter the labor market despite the city’s attempts to help. In 2019, 68 percent of ethnically diverse young people with a maximum education level of VMBO or MBO-1 had a job. In 2022, that was 67 percent, Parool reports based on the latest figures from Amsterdam’s Research & Statistics department. The fact that ethnically diverse young people, aged 15 to 26, are having no more luck finding a job is striking because the same category of young people with a Dutch-only background are working more. In 2019, 73 percent of Dutch-only young people without a diploma had a job. In 2022, it was 80 percent. The unemployment rate is also higher among ethnically diverse young people (10 percent) than Dutch-only young people (7 percent) in the city. The unemployment rate is the highest among Dutch-Caribbean (14.3%), Dutch-Turkish (13.1%), Dutch-Surinamese (12.7%), and Dutch-Moroccan (11.7%) young people in Amsterdam.
