Older immigrants - new poverty risk in Scandinavian welfare states
Many European high-income countries face a rapid increase in the number of immigrants from low- and middle-income countries reaching the normal pension age. Thus, it is increasingly relevant to ask: how are older migrants from such countries faring? Here we study poverty rates and determinants of poverty among natives and persons born in Bosnia, Iran, Iraq, Yugoslavia and Turkey living in Denmark or Sweden in 2010. Income data on all such persons…
The inverse care law and the significance of income for utilization of longterm care services in a Nordic welfare state
The Inverse Care Law states that the availability of good medical care tends to vary inversely with the need of the population served, with previous research indicating that migrant populations might be particularly at risk of this phenomenon. However, the degree to which the law applies to long-term care services (LTCS) in diverse ageing societies, where sizable older migrant populations need to be accounted for, has not been well investigated. …
Use of long-term care services in a universal welfare state - On the importance of age at migration
Older people in Sweden without means
This paper examines immigrant poverty at an older age in Sweden with an emphasis on late-in-life immigrants. We analyse tax data for the entire Swedish-born and non-Swedish-born population. The poverty status of a household is assessed using two criteria. First, the disposable income of the household in which the person lived in 2007 must be below 60 per cent of the median equivalent income in Sweden as a whole. Second, to be classified as ‘twice…
Age at immigration matters for labor market integration-the Swedish example
This paper analyses how age at immigration to Sweden and getting a first foothold in the labor market is related. We estimate hazard rate models using registry data on all persons who arrived in each of the years 1990, 1994, 1998, and 2002. The results show that the number of years taken to get a foothold in the Swedish labor market increases rapidly by age among immigrants from middle- and low-income countries aged 40+. Most individuals who are …
