1 Chulalongkorn Journal of Economics 23, 2011: Kiriya K.: Immigrant-employing Firms in Thai Manufacturing 95 Immigrant-employing Firms in Thai Manufacturing Kiriya Kulkolkarn Abstract This study provides a picture of immigrant employment in manufacturing of Thailand. Productivity and Investment Climate Survey (PICS) of Thailand in 2007 reveals that 19 percent processing industries hire 70 percent of the total of 10,837 immigrants. The average share of Keywords: Immigrant, Manufacturing, Thailand, Firm-level Data * Faculty of Economics, Thammasat University, Thailand.

17 Kiriya K.: Immigrant-employing Firms in Thai Manufacturing Conclusions This study provides a picture of immigrant employment in manufacturing of Thailand. It distinguishes immigrant-employing firms from non-immigrant firms employed 10,837 immigrants. Of all immigrants 37 percent (4031 immigrants) in electronic components, and 1 percent each (116 immigrants, 83 immigrants and and electrical appliances. The average share of immigrants in total employment of each firm is appliances. Moreover, the data reveals high concentration of firm in immigrant
