Migrant Women in the UK's Digital Economy: The Elimination of Labour Market Barriers in the Digital Labour Market

This research paper delves into the complexities migrant women face within the UK labour market, with a specific focus on the digital economy's role as both a barrier and a conduit for employment opportunities. Migrant women in the UK encounter dual barriers to labour market entry: systemic challenges rooted in migration and gender biases, and the digital divide that exacerbates access and inclusion issues within the burgeoning digital economy. Through an exploratory descriptive analysis, this study explores how digitalism-defined as the integration of digital technologies into economic and societal practices-circumvents traditional labour market entry barriers such as languages barriers. By setting out the grounds for a potential hypothesis and further research in the era of AI, this paper underlines how through the implementation of AI tools, traditional barriers such as language barriers are eliminated in the digital labour market.
