Senate Testimonies about H1-B Visa Program
The testimonies to the United States Senate about the recent H1-B visa bill, have raised questions concering wide spread discrimination within the high technology industry. The testimoney of Karen Paneta, Vice President, Communications and Public Awareness at the IEEE, the nations largest professiona engnineering orgranization, suggests that the srmies of foreign high technology workers that have been inported into the United States over the last 30 years have been almost entirely young men.
Whether or not a class action suit will be or could be raised on the grounds of mass scale gender, race and age discrimination remains an open question. However if it becomes one, large high technology employers like Microsoft and Intel, may have to run for cover.
Rotated in and out of the United States for 7 year tours of duty in places such as the Silicon Valley, the size of the male-only high technology immigrant labor force at any given time is estimated in the range of 700,000 to 2,000,000 workers. The average pay of these high technology workers is estimated in the range of $60,000 to $100,000 a year depending on the skill level (many are recent college grads).
Has the high tech overlooked American
women engineers in favor of foreign
trade school graduates?
The total bill for mass scale discrimination could be very high. Different calculation scenarios suggest that the high technology industry could be liable for anywhere between $300 billion and $1 trillion dollars for its failure to follow discrimination laws.
Even if it is not legally possible for a class action lawsuit to be filed on behalf of American technology workers, the testimonies and the facts that have come forth suggest that the high technology industry has, knowlingly or unknowingly, marginalized discrimination laws in favor of what it feels is a better business model.
That business model, a rotating insource and outsource business model, however has left manny pondering about the general health of the American high technology industry. Their model has resulted in very weak and vulnerable research and development infrastructures at American high technology companies. Conversely, it has also resulted in foreign corporations with strong and shrewd research and development infrastructures. All of which does not bode well for the future of American technology companies and workers.
