While the labor force participation rate of the migrant and non-migrant population was more or less equal in regions such as North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Latin America and the Caribbean, it was less even in other regions. The largest difference between migrants and non-migrants was found in Arab States, where nearly 80 percent of migrants participated in the labor force, meaning that they were either employed or registered as unemployed looking forward. Only 40 percent of the local population in Arab States participated in the workforce.
