Abstract: "This report studies the labor market integration of refugees in Germany who arrived from 2013 to 2016 based on the IAB-BAMF-SOEP Refugee Survey, which has been linked to the register data of the Integrated Employment Biographies (IEB), and on administrative employment data from the Federal Employment Agency (BA). The employment rate of the refugee population in working age have achieved 55 percent for those who have stayed for five years in Germany by the end of 2019, and at 46 percent for those who have - as the 2015 arrivals - stayed for four to five years in Germany in this period. 57 percent of the employed refugees performed skilled tasks. Refugees are disproportionally affected by the COVID-19-shock: employment of the citizens from the main origin countries of the asylum seekers declined by 3 percent from end of 2019 to June 2020, compared to 1 percent of total employment in Germany during the same period. In the same period of 2019, the employment growth of the labor force from the man origin countries of the asylum seekers achieved 7 percent. The employment rate of the 2015 refugee arrivals will be therefore well below the 50 percent threshold by the end of 2020 against this background. The employment rates of female refugees are well below those of their male counterparts. This phenomenon is closely associated with differences in the family status, particularly high shares of children and toddlers." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku) ((en))
