Forced migrants in Italy have so far received limited assistance and follow integration trajectories into the job market typical of economic migrants. Using a multilevel statistical approach and a new source of survey data, this article describes key aspects of the economic integration of forced migrants. Particular attention is paid to testing the hypothesis that there are significant differences between them and other migrants in the risk of unemployment and in access to the primary job market. Results from this study show a higher risk of unemployment than for other migrants but no difference in their access to regular employment.

Abstract

Forced migrants in Italy have so far received limited assistance and follow integration trajectories into the job market typical of economic migrants. Using a multilevel statistical approach and a new source of survey data, this article describes key aspects of the economic integration of forced migrants. Particular attention is paid to testing the hypothesis that there are significant differences between them and other migrants in the risk of unemployment and in access to the primary job market. Results from this study show a higher risk of unemployment than for other migrants but no difference in their access to regular employment.
