Abstract
This report is one of several produced under the Migrating for Work Research Consortium (MiWORC). It
provides in-depth analysis of the migration module piloted by Statistics South Africa in the third quarter (Q3)
2012 of the Quarterly Labour Force Survey (QLFS). The first two content sections of the paper provide analysis
of the QLFS data. The first provides analysis based on place of birth, while the second provides analysis based
on movement in the past five years. The third content section compares the results of the QLFS analysis with
results from analysis of other data sources relating to South Africa. The fourth section presents and compares
findings in respect of other countries.
