Online survey in employment agencies and Jobcenters: Labour market integration of refugees from the perspective of placement officers

Abstract

"At the end of 2017, IAB conducted an online survey on the subject of refugees and asylum seekers. It interviewed specialists from employment agencies and Jobcenters who regularly advise and place refugees on the German labour market. For the survey, all 156 employment agencies and 136 Jobcenters were contacted by e-mail. The respondents identified various barriers for the labour market integration of refugees. The most frequently mentioned barriers are language skills, missing or non-transferable qualifications, caring responsibilities towards children and relatives, and lack of experience with informal rules on the German labour market."
