If you care about leverage then you should consider what kind of immigration policies you support, because bringing in more workers reduces the leverage of the current pool of workers, by increasing supply. The harder it is for your boss to find a competent replacement, the more leverage you have when negotiating with him/her.
- tuwtuwtuwtuw 3y agoIt's more expensive for my employer to hire people in my country than to hire people in other countries, because the salaries in other countries are lower. As an effect, they basically don't hire new employees in my country because eastern Europe, India, Vietnam etc is cheaper. With your reasoning I should definitively support immigration policies which bring more people to my country, since that will make the hiring pool smaller and my leverage will go up. Is that what you meant?
