A guest worker is a person who is temporarily employed in a country other than their own, typically with the intention of filling a labor shortage in a specific industry or sector. Guest workers are often hired for low-skilled or manual labor jobs, such as agriculture, manufacturing, or construction. They are usually recruited by employers or labor brokers, and their employment is often regulated by government programs or bilateral agreements between countries. Guest workers are typically granted work permits or visas for a limited period of time, after which they are expected to return to their home country. The use of guest workers is a controversial issue, as some argue that it can lead to exploitation and unfair treatment of foreign workers, while others view it as a necessary means of filling labor shortages and supporting economic growth.
