"Immigrant" and "migrant worker" are not the only terms people use to subconsciously distance themselves from those who have moved to work in their country. The most loaded term, which I somehow forgot to mention, is "alien," or the even more remote "permanent resident alien."
Those terms make those working abroad seem literally as if they're from a different planet.
I can tell you, I've even been an "illegal alien" before-- living and working on an expired visa-- and I never once thought of myself in that way. Why? I don't know.
