| Sumario: | [eng] This paper focuses on diverging trends and complementary roles of workers of Spanish and foreign nationality in the Spanish labour market. We conduct a sociodemographic and territorial analysis of labour sectors. We argue that the 'immigration boom' experienced by Spain in the last decade is complementary to the educational, labour and social advancement of the national workforce. Using the EPA survey (Spanish labour force survey), this study attempts to analyse the socio-demographic characteristics of both the national and the immigrant labour force in Spain between 2000 and 2007. We identify three categories of activity sectors: 1) those where national workers are 'replaced' by immigrant workers; 2) those where there is a simultaneous increase of both Spanish and foreign workers; and finally, 3) those 'reserved' for the native workforce. These three categories are first defined at the national level and then analysed regionally in order to identify geographical patterns. |
