Migrant workers are still a very powerful force in seasonal farm work. The term migrant applies as the migrate with the season to where the jobs are.
ranch hands were the most frequent jobs back in the early 1900s
The migrant workers are called migrant workers because they migrate. To migrate means to move. Migrant workers move from farm to farm, hoping to find work.
the great depression was due to a stock market crash, which then resulted in thousands of people losing there jobs and becoming unemployed. This is not the only reason why they lossed there jobs though. The migrant workers acted like replacements to the people who lossed there jobs. A migrant worker is a worker who doe's not work from there own country (or something like that).
All workers family lives are affected by their jobs.
Migrant or seasonal workers usually are found in the agricultural industry, picking crops as they become ripe and moving on to other farms and orchards as they are needed.
Migrant workers were also sometimes called "guest workers" or "temporary workers."
Migrant workers often faced competition for jobs due to several factors, including an oversupply of labor in certain regions and industries, which heightened the competition among workers for limited positions. Additionally, local workers sometimes viewed migrant labor as a threat to their job security, leading to tensions and competition. Economic conditions, such as high unemployment rates or downturns in specific sectors, further exacerbated this competition. Lastly, varying skill levels and wage expectations among migrant workers contributed to a complex job market where competition was intensified.
