Abstract
Uses a unique data set of 300 paired Turkish and Bangladeshi father and son immigrants in London to establish the extent to which immigrant workers are employed in jobs with adverse working conditions, the extent to which compensating differences in pay are obtained for such work, and the extent to which the sons are able to move out of such jobs as they become assimilated into the labour market.
