Information on the variety of wages for similar types of jobs [ISR11701]

According to an article on Soviet integration in Israel,
Larissa, 38, [...], worked as a construction engineer in Moscow [...]. When she finally found a job in her field, she was offered a salary of $600.00 U.S. a month, half of what she heard Israelis beginning such work would earn (Los Angeles Times 8 Apr. 1991).

The IRBDC in Ottawa is currently awaiting further information on this subject. The information will be forwarded to your Regional Documentation Centre upon receipt by the IRBDC in Ottawa.
