The information about the
number

workers
in

, the United

the table.
This
table compares the
number
of temporary migrant
workers
in 2003 and 2006,
as well as
the
number
per 1000 people in these countries in 2006. The
number
of short-term migrant
workers
in all four countries experienced an increase,
although
there was a difference in growth among them. In 2003, the country with the largest nonpermanent expatriate workforce was the United
States
, with 577,000.
This
number
was larger than the combined
number
of short-term migrant
workers
in
Australia
, New
Zealand
, and the United
Kingdom
. That year,
Australia
only had 152,000 migrant
workers
, and the United
Kingdom
only had 137,000. Meanwhile, the
number
in New
Zealand
was much smaller, at only 65,000.
However
, the growth of migrant labor in the United
States
between 2003 and 2006 was smaller if we compared it to the United
Kingdom
. The United
States
only saw a 101,000 increase in 2006,
while
the United
Kingdom
experienced a larger increase with 129,000 more migrant
workers
compared to 2003.
However
, the growth of the nonpermanent expatriate workforce in
Australia
and New
Zealand
is much smaller than that in those two countries, at 67,000 and 22,000.
Nonetheless
, the
proportion
of temporary migrant
workers
per 1000 people in the United
Kingdom
and USA is less than the
proportion
in
Australia
and New
Zealand
. New
Zealand
has a
proportion
of 21.1,
while
Australia
has 10.7. The
proportion
in the United
States
did not even reach 0.1 times the
proportion
in New
Zealand
, with only 2.3. At the same time, the
proportion
in the UK is almost twice that of the
proportion
in the US, with 4.4.
