The Adecco Group white paper ‘The Labour Market Integration of Refugees’ showcases the best practices of 18 companies in Europe, providing actionable recommendations for governments, policy makers and employers alike.

The white paper is written for employers, policymakers, NGOs and other stakeholders. It provides background information by outlining the refugees’  paths to Europe, the legal frameworks and support measures in EU member states and the refugees’ socioeconomic characteristics. Based on this background information, it summarises the needs for action and describes good practices of company integration and policymaking in more detail. The good practices are drawn from expert interviews with representatives of fifteen European companies from different sectors, as well as with representatives of various associations and NGOs, and from an analysis of relevant literature.
