Abstract
Research regarding the “International Labour Migration: Causes and Consequences of Nepalese
Youths” has been carried out to findout the current situation of Nepalese youths to work as a
labour migrants in the foreign countries from the Nepal as well as to evaluate the existing
Nepalese government’s policies and programmes related to the regulation and management of
foreign employment of migrants labour in Nepal. This study, at the some time has seek to identify
the issues and challenges on foreign employment, nature of labour migration trend, it's flow and
the number of socio-economic and demographic aspects related to the migration of Nepali migrant
workers. Similarly, this study has also evaluated the internationally recognized policies and
programmes to protect the rights of the migrant workers.
Similarly, qualitative and quantitative information has incorporated to the completion of this
study. So the flow, trend analysis of Nepali labour migrants by fiscal year and the concentration of
people in different countries in different period of time are also observed. It is found that, migrants
workers have faced problems both in the home country and the country of destination, where as
the problems in abroad are highlighted very much as compared to the problem that they are being
in the national level. Nepalese government polices are not able enough and properly implemented
to the regulation and management of foreign labour migration. At the some time Nepalese
government is not found sincere to the implication of international provisions to protect the rights
of the migrant workers. Government mechanisms are not found very much effective to assure safe
migration of potential labour migrants.
Last but not the least, the study has concluded that the foreign labour migration can be regulated
with the proper implementation of government policies and programmes to sustain the migrant
labour market. The foreign employment profession should also be accepted as a dignified
occupation as because of its importance to strengthen the national economy and it also making our
young people engage in some sorts of income generating activities, where the country is coping
with the financial and economics difficulties at this period.
