Sažetak
In order to theoretically assess the potential impact of immigrants on different labor market outcomes in Croatia, it is important to compare the labor market profile of the natives and immigrants. The profile of immigrants will be analyzed by taking into account several possible definitions of immigrants that are addressed in the literature of migration economics. These definitions are based on different elements i.e. place of birth, citizenship and length of stay in the country. We give an additional insight into the labor market profiles of immigrants and investigate the possibility of “displacement effect”, in which immigrants substitute natives on the labor market. Given the results, the existence of composition effect in Croatia regarding the labor market status between natives and immigrants cannot be expected although some differences are visible, mainly in the area of income distribution and the distribution of observed groups of population among different activities.
