Fact sheet
Deployment of women migrant workers from selected ASEAN Member States, 2000-14
This fact sheet presents the total number of deployed migrant workers from the top six ASEAN countries of origin as well as the respective total number and percentage of deployed women migrant workers.
The ILMS Database is the first of its kind in the region. It gathers together official government data from a number of statistical sources on international migrant workers’ stocks and flows within the region as well as on countries’ nationals living or working abroad. In doing so it fills an important knowledge gap, creating a powerful research tool through which policymakers and others can profile and monitor the international migrant labour force within the region.
The ILMS Database is published at a critical time for the ASEAN region, as economic development, regional integration, and demographic factors continue to drive intra-regional labour mobility.
