"Main local industry is textile, farming, UN work, NGO work. For the expat, this would be to main area...other than medical and teaching. Haiti is unforgiving unless you have existing commitment from existing entity. The common Local worker earns only about two US dollars per day. Skilled local workers such as plumbers, carpenters, masons, etc. may make around eight to fifteen US dollars per day. Jobs are generally found through the UN, NGO's, International recruiters, and local knowledge of who, what, when, where....and who to contact. If you lack the local networking...only international recruitment is the likely source," said another expat in Petion-ville, Haiti.
