Making it Work: Refugee employment in the UK. Working paper 2 of the 'asylum and migration' working paper series

This working paper paints a worrying picture of refugee unemployment in the UK.

Dr Alice Bloch argues that getting refugees into employment is key to their successful integration into the UK and suggests strategies for how Government policy can reflect the importance of this goal.
