Prepared for the government of Iran, the report is the result of a study concerned with the recruitment and employment of foreign workers. Due to the rapid industrialization of Iran, an anticipated shortage of qualified workers led to the government's request for an outside expert to advise on considerations and suggested procedures involved in the recruiting of qualified workers from other countries. Topics considered included recruitment in highly industrialized countries, recruitment in low wage countries, national legislation and organization, development of a model contract, illegal employment of foreign workers, welfare services, social security, and taxation. Recommendations were made for implementing procedures with the proposal that policy decisions would have to be formulated by a governmental agency, and a followup study was advised. Appended are a suggested organizational chart and suggested steps to be taken in the program of recruitment and employment of foreign workers. (RG)
