Yemen Return Migrants Survey
The main objective of this survey is to gain insights into the profile of Yemeni migrants that were forcibly returned from KSA, how they migrated, what they experienced abroad, and what their employment prospects are back home. These insights in turn are hoped to contribute to evidence based employment and migration policies in Yemen.
The Central Statistical Organization (CSO) of Yemen and the International Labour Organization (ILO) have the pleasure to present the results of the Migrants Return Survey in Yemen. The survey was carried out in 2014 by the CSO with technical assistance of ILO and financial assistance by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). The survey generated representative information about the background and employment profile and the future plans of the Yemeni migrants forcibly returned from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia over 2013/2014.
The survey also provides information on migration patterns, working conditions and remuneration while abroad, skills acquisition, and employment prospects after return to Yemen. The survey was administered in four governorates with a sample size of 2,414 households.
