For release 10:00 a.m. (ET) Thursday, May 18, 2023 USDL-23-1013 Technical information: (202) 691-6378 * cpsinfo@bls.gov * www.bls.gov/cps Media contact: (202) 691-5902 * PressOffice@bls.gov FOREIGN-BORN WORKERS: LABOR FORCE CHARACTERISTICS -- 2022 The unemployment rate for foreign-born persons in the United States was 3.4 percent in 2022, down from 5.6 percent in 2021, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. The jobless rate of native-born persons declined to 3.7 percent in 2022 from 5.3 percent in 2021. Both measures are down considerably from their highs in 2020. However, the jobless rate for the foreign born remains above its level of 3.1 percent prior to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in 2019, while the rate for the native born is little changed from its pre-pandemic level of 3.8 percent. Data on nativity are collected as part of the Current Population Survey (CPS), a monthly sample survey of approximately 60,000 households. The foreign born are persons who reside in the United States but who were not U.S. citizens at birth. Specifically, they were born outside the United States (or one of its outlying areas such as Puerto Rico or Guam), and neither parent was a U.S. citizen. The foreign born include legally-admitted immigrants, refugees, temporary residents such as students and temporary workers, and undocumented immigrants. However, the survey does not separately identify persons in these categories. For further information about the survey, see the Technical Note in this news release. Highlights from the 2022 data: --In 2022, the foreign born accounted for 18.1 percent of the U.S. civilian labor force, up from 17.4 percent in 2021. (See table 1.) --From 2021 to 2022, the unemployment rate of the foreign born declined from 5.6 percent to 3.4 percent, and the jobless rate for the native born decreased from 5.3 percent to 3.7 percent. (See table 1.) --Hispanics continued to account for nearly one-half of the foreign-born labor force in 2022, and Asians accounted for one-quarter. (See table 1.) (Data in this news release for persons who are White, Black, or Asian do not include those of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. Data on persons of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity are presented separately.) --Foreign-born men continued to participate in the labor force at a considerably higher rate in 2022 (77.4 percent) than their native-born counterparts (66.0 percent). By contrast, 55.0 percent of foreign-born women were labor force participants, lower than the participation rate of 57.2 percent for native-born women. (See table 1.) --In 2022, foreign-born workers were more likely than native-born workers to be employed in service occupations; natural resources, construction, and maintenance occupations; and production, transportation, and material moving occupations. Foreign-born workers were less likely than native-born workers to be employed in management, professional, and related occupations and in sales and office occupations. (See table 4.) --The median usual weekly earnings of foreign-born full-time wage and salary workers were $945 in 2022, compared with $1,087 for their native-born counterparts. (See table 5.) (Differences in earnings reflect a variety of factors, including variations in the distributions of foreign-born and native-born workers by educational attainment, occupation, industry, and geographic region.) Demographic Characteristics The demographic composition of the foreign-born labor force differs from that of the native-born labor force. In 2022, men accounted for 57.2 percent of the foreign-born labor force, compared with 52.3 percent of the native-born labor force. By age, the proportion of the foreign-born labor force made up of 25- to 54-year-olds (71.1 percent) was higher than for the native-born labor force (62.2 percent). Labor force participation is typically highest among persons in that age bracket. (See table 1.) In 2022, nearly one-half (47.6 percent) of the foreign-born labor force was Hispanic, and one-quarter (24.7 percent) was Asian. Hispanics and Asians made up much lower percentages of the native-born labor force, at 12.2 percent and 2.4 percent, respectively. About 16.0 percent of the foreign-born labor force was White and 10.4 percent was Black, compared with 69.9 percent and 12.4 percent, respectively, of the native-born labor force. In terms of educational attainment, the proportion of the foreign-born labor force age 25 and over that had not completed high school was 18.3 percent in 2022, much higher than the figure for the native-born labor force, at 3.4 percent. The foreign born were less likely than the native born to have some college or an associate degree--15.5 percent versus 27.2 percent. The proportions of foreign-born and native-born high school graduates (25.5 percent versus 25.0 percent) and those with a bachelor's degree or higher (40.7 percent versus 44.5 percent) were more similar. Labor Force In 2022, the foreign born accounted for 18.1 percent of the U.S. civilian labor force, up from 17.4 percent in 2021. In 2022, the labor force participation rate of the foreign born increased to 65.9 percent. The rate for foreign-born men changed little at 77.4 percent, while the rate for foreign-born women increased to 55.0 percent. The labor force participation rate of the native born changed little at 61.5 percent. The rate for native-born men was little changed at 66.0 percent, while the rate for native-born women increased to 57.2 percent. (See table 1.) Labor force participation rates for the foreign born varied across the major race and ethnicity groups in 2022, ranging from 60.2 percent for foreign-born Whites to 72.7 percent for foreign-born Blacks. Participation rates for the native born showed less variation across major race and ethnicity groups, ranging from 60.5 percent for native-born Blacks to 65.4 percent for native-born Hispanics. Among the major race and ethnicity groups, the labor force participation rate of foreign-born Blacks and Hispanics increased to 72.7 percent and 67.3 percent, respectively, from 2021 to 2022. The rates for foreign-born Whites and Asians showed little or no change over the year. Among the native born, the participation rate of Blacks and Asians increased to 60.5 percent and to 63.9 percent, respectively. The rate for native-born Hispanics changed little from 2021 to 2022. After adjusting for population controls, the participation rate for native-born Whites declined from 2021 to 2022. In 2022, foreign-born mothers with children under age 18 were less likely to be labor force participants than native-born mothers--63.0 percent versus 76.0 percent. Labor force participation differences between foreign-born and native-born mothers were greater among those with younger children than among those with older children. Among women with children under age 3, the participation rate for foreign-born mothers was 52.7 percent, 16.2 percentage points below that for native-born mothers, at 68.9 percent. By comparison, the labor force participation rate of foreign-born mothers with children ages 6 to 17 (68.2 percent) was 11.3 percentage points lower than that for native-born mothers with children ages 6 to 17 (79.5 percent). The labor force participation rates of foreign-born and native-born fathers with children under age 18 were more similar, at 93.4 percent and 92.7 percent, respectively. (See table 2.) By region, the foreign born made up a larger share of the labor force in the West (23.5 percent) and in the Northeast (21.6 percent) in 2022 than for the nation as a whole (18.1 percent). The foreign born made up a smaller share of the labor force than for the nation as a whole in the South (17.5 percent) and the Midwest (10.2 percent). (See table 6.) Employment In 2022, the employment population ratio of the foreign born increased to 63.6 percent. The rates for foreign-born men and women increased to 74.9 percent and 53.0 percent, respectively. The employment population ratio of the native born rose to 59.2 percent. The population ratios for native-born men and women increased to 63.5 percent and 55.1 percent, respectively. (See table 1.) Unemployment The unemployment rate of the foreign born declined from 5.6 percent to 3.4 percent from 2021 to 2022, and the jobless rate for the native born decreased from 5.3 percent to 3.7 percent. The jobless rate for the foreign born remained higher than its 2019 level (3.1 percent), prior to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, while the rate for the native born was little changed from its pre-pandemic level (3.8 percent). The over-the-year declines in the unemployment rates of the foreign born and the native born reflected declines in the rates for both men and women. In 2022, the unemployment rates for foreign-born men and women fell by 1.8 percentage points and 2.5 percentage points to 3.3 percent and 3.6 percent, respectively. The unemployment rates for native-born men and women fell by 1.7 percentage points and 1.4 percentage points to 3.8 percent and 3.6 percent, respectively. (See table 1.) For both the foreign born and the native born, jobless rates vary considerably by race and ethnicity. Among the foreign born, Blacks had the highest unemployment rate in 2022 (4.8 percent), followed by Hispanics (3.7 percent), Whites (3.4 percent), and Asians (2.4 percent). Among the native born, jobless rates were highest for Blacks (6.4 percent), followed by Hispanics (4.8 percent), Asians (3.6 percent), and Whites (2.9 percent). Occupation In 2022, foreign-born workers continued to be more likely than native-born workers to be employed in service occupations (21.6 percent versus 14.8 percent); natural resources, construction, and maintenance occupations (13.9 percent versus 7.9 percent); and production, transportation, and material moving occupations (15.2 percent versus 12.1 percent). Foreign-born workers were less likely than native-born workers to be employed in management, professional, and related occupations (35.7 percent versus 44.7 percent) and in sales and office occupations (13.6 percent versus 20.5 percent). (See table 4.) Among employed men, the disparity was especially great in natural resources, construction, and maintenance occupations--22.6 percent of the foreign born worked in this occupational field in 2022, versus 14.4 percent of the native born. The occupational disparity for women was pronounced in service occupations--30.0 percent of the foreign born worked in that occupation group, compared with 17.5 percent of the native born. By contrast, employed native-born men and women were more likely than their foreign-born counterparts to work in management, professional, and related occupations and in sales and office occupations. Earnings In 2022, median usual weekly earnings of foreign-born full-time wage and salary workers ($945) were 86.9 percent of the earnings of their native-born counterparts ($1,087). Among men, median weekly earnings for the foreign born ($1,000) were 84.4 percent of the earnings of the native born ($1,185). Median earnings for foreign-born women ($861) were 88.3 percent of the earnings of native-born women ($975). (See table 5.) Differences in earnings reflect a variety of factors, including variations in the distributions of foreign-born and native-born workers by educational attainment, occupation, industry, and geographic region. Among the major race and ethnicity groups, Hispanic foreign-born full-time wage and salary workers earned 83.3 percent as much as their native-born counterparts in 2022. For Black and Asian workers, earnings for the foreign born were slightly higher than for their native-born counterparts (by 8.3 percent and 2.6 percent, respectively), while White foreign-born workers earned 13.4 percent more than their native-born counterparts. The earnings of both foreign-born and native-born workers increase with education. In 2022, foreign-born workers age 25 and over with less than a high school diploma earned $663 per week, while those with a bachelor's degree and higher earned 2.4 times as much--$1,581 per week. Among the native born, those with a bachelor's degree and higher earned 2.2 times as much as those with less than a high school diploma--$1,537 per week versus $708 per week. Native-born workers earn more than the foreign born at most educational attainment levels. For example, among high school graduates (no college), full-time workers who were foreign born ($767) earned 87.3 percent as much as their native-born counterparts ($879) in 2022. However, among those with a bachelor's degree and higher, the earnings of foreign-born workers ($1,581) were slightly higher than the earnings of native-born workers ($1,537).
Technical Note The estimates in this release are based on annual average data from the Current Population Survey (CPS). The CPS, which is conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau for the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), is a monthly survey of about 60,000 eligible households that provides information on the labor force status, demographics, and other characteristics of the nation's civilian noninstitutional population age 16 and over. In response to the increased demand for statistical information about the foreign born, questions on nativity, citizenship, year of entry into the United States, and the parental nativity of respondents were added to the CPS beginning in January 1994. Prior to 1994, the primary sources of data on the foreign born were the decennial census, two CPS supplements (conducted in April 1983 and November 1989), and, to some extent, information collected by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (formerly known as the Immigration and Naturalization Service). The foreign- and native-born data presented in this release are not strictly comparable with data for earlier years due to the introduction of updated population estimates, or controls, used in the CPS. The population controls are updated each year in January to reflect the latest information about population change. Additional information is available from the BLS website at www.bls.gov/cps/documentation.htm#pop. If you are deaf, hard of hearing, or have a speech disability, please dial 7-1-1 to access telecommunications relay services Reliability of the estimates Statistics based on the CPS are subject to both sampling and nonsampling error. When a sample, rather than the entire population, is surveyed, there is a chance that the sample estimates may differ from the true population values they represent. The component of this difference that occurs because samples differ by chance is known as sampling error, and its variability is measured by the standard error of the estimate. There is about a 90-percent chance, or level of confidence, that an estimate based on a sample will differ by no more than 1.6 standard errors from the true population value because of sampling error. BLS analyses are generally conducted at the 90-percent level of confidence. The CPS data also are affected by nonsampling error. Nonsampling error can occur for many reasons, including the failure to sample a segment of the population, inability to obtain information for all respondents in the sample, inability or unwillingness of respondents to provide correct information, and errors made in the collection or processing of the data. Additional information about the reliability of data from the CPS and estimating standard errors is available at www.bls.gov/cps/documentation.htm#reliability. Definitions Definitions of the principal terms used in this release are presented below. Foreign born. The foreign born are persons residing in the United States who were not U.S. citizens at birth. Specifically, they were born outside the United States (or one of its outlying areas such as Guam or Puerto Rico), and neither parent was a U.S. citizen. The foreign-born population includes legally-admitted immigrants, refugees, temporary residents such as students and temporary workers,and undocumented immigrants. The survey data, however, do not separately identify the number of persons in these categories. Native born. The native born are persons born in the United States or one of its outlying areas such as Puerto Rico or Guam or who were born abroad of at least one parent who was a U.S. citizen. Race and ethnicity groups. In this release, the data are presented for non-Hispanic Whites, Blacks, and Asians and for persons of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity. These four groups are mutually exclusive but not exhaustive. Other race groups (including persons who selected more than one race category) are included in the overall totals but are not shown separately because the number of survey respondents is too small to develop statistically reliable estimates. The presentation of data on race and ethnicity in this release differs from that which appears in most analyses of CPS labor force data because persons of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity are separated from the race groups. Because persons of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity can be of any race, they are usually included in the race groups as well as shown separately in the Hispanic or Latino ethnicity group. The reason for the difference in the data presentation in this release is because about half of the foreign born are of Hispanic or Latino ethnicity and they have somewhat different labor force characteristics than the non- Hispanic foreign born. Employed. Employed persons are all those who, during the survey reference week, (a) did any work at all as paid employees; (b) worked in their own business, profession, or on their own farm; or (c) worked 15 hours or more as unpaid workers in a family member's business. Persons who were temporarily absent from their jobs because of illness, bad weather, vacation, labor dispute, or another reason also are counted as employed. Unemployed. The unemployed are those who had no employment during the reference week, were available for work at that time, and had made specific efforts to find employment sometime during the 4-week period ending with the reference week. Persons who were waiting to be recalled to a job from which they had been laid off need not be looking for work to be classified as unemployed. Civilian labor force. The civilian labor force comprises all persons classified as employed or unemployed. Unemployment rate. The unemployment rate is the number unemployed as a percent of the civilian labor force. Labor force participation rate. The labor force participation rate is the labor force as a percent of the population. Usual weekly earnings. Data represent earnings before taxes and other deductions and include any overtime pay, commissions, or tips usually received (at the main job in the case of multiple jobholders). Earnings reported on a basis other than weekly are converted to a weekly equivalent. Full-time wage and salary workers. These are workers who usually work 35 hours or more per week at their sole or principal job and receive wages, salaries, and other types of compensation. The group includes employees in both the private and public sectors but, for purposes of the earnings series, excludes all self-employed persons, regardless of whether or not their businesses are incorporated. Median earnings. The median earnings is the amount which divides a given earnings distribution into two equal groups, one having earnings above the median and the other having earnings below the median.
