Preferred term

guest workers  

Definition(s)

  • Guest workers are people who sell their labor in a country other than their country of citizenship. As the term implies, guest workers are different from immigrants in that guest workers are in a host country strictly to work and are expected to eventually return to their home country. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Guest Workers]
