Abstract

In recent years, the employment of migrant workers in the hospitality and tourism (H&T) industry has increased considerably. Many migrant workers find jobs in the industry either formal or informal. However, the number of research conducted on migrant workers has been declining. Therefore, it is high time to start the research on migrant workers. This study aims to critically examine the research on migrant workers in the field of H&T and to develop new perspectives for future research in the field. In this context, 25 articles published between 2012 and 2022 were systematically reviewed. The findings have revealed that the research on migrant workers in H&T has not made sufficient progress and that there are still many research questions to be answered. Based on this, 34 research questions have been developed for future research. Considering that there is no review study synthesizing the research on migrant workers in the literature, this study is expected to significantly contribute to the literature.

Özet

Son yıllarda, göçmen işçilerin konaklama ve turizm endüstrisinde istihdamı dikkate değer bir artış göstermiştir. Pek çok göçmen işçi kayıtlı veya kayıt dışı olarak endüstride iş fırsatları bulmaktadır. Bununla beraber göçmen işçiler üzerine yapılan araştırmalarda bir durgunluk ve düşüş görülmektedir. Dolayısıyla göçmen işçi araştırmalarını ateşlemenin zamanı gelmiştir. Bu çalışma, H&T alanındaki göçmen işçi araştırmalarını eleştirel bir şekilde incelemeyi ve gelecek araştırmaları için perspektifler geliştirmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu kapsamda 2012-2022 periyodunda yayımlanmış 25 araştırma sistematik olarak gözden geçirilmiştir. Bulgular temel olarak göçmen işçi araştırmalarının yeterli ilerleme kat etmediğini ve cevaplanmayı bekleyen çok sayıda araştırma sorusunun olduğu göstermiştir. Buradan hareketle gelecek araştırmaları için 34 araştırma sorusu formüle edilmiştir. Alanyazında göçmen işçi araştırmalarını sentezleyen bir gözden geçirme çalışmasının olmadığı dikkate alındığında, bu çalışmanın alanyazına katkı sağlaması beklenmektedir.
