Authors : Abidli Abdelkader .

Abstract

This study aims to determine the impact of foreign labor recruiting on the job performance of local employees in private economic institutions in El Oued Province, located in southeastern Algeria. To achieve the objective of the study, and after reviewing the legal and regulatory framework for recruiting foreign labor in Algeria, the opinions of a group of local employees affiliated with these institutions were measured through a questionnaire designed to assess their views on the impact of foreign labor on their job performance across the axes of on-the-job training and learning through interaction, the development of initiative, and the development of team spirit. After statistical processing of the collected data using the SPSS software, the study found a statistically significant positive impact of foreign labor on the transfer of skills to local employees through the axes of on-the-job training and learning through interaction, as well as the development of initiative. However, the same impact was not found regarding the axis of developing team spirit. Keywords: Attracting Foreign Labor; Foreign labor recruitment, Local labor, Job performance
