The 9 month wait is what is the biggest problem in this entire refugee crisis. It completely ruins integration. Anyone that don't have a job for 9 months are unlikely to get back into the workforce without some serious help, regardless of their nationality. And it's not like these people have anything against working - they aren't allowed to! And getting a job is crucial for integration, because your workplace is your most important social arena, and it will drastically increase the speed of which a refugee will he able to learn the language and culture.
Like I said, anyone will struggle in getting badk into the workforce after being unemployed for a longer period if time. The stats prove this. Which makes it all the more ridiculous how so many governments ignore this issue. Treatment times for asylum applications need to be drastically reduced. It will cost money, but it will pay off exponentially in long term effects from higher employment amongst refugees. |
Ugh, how do you want them to get work done if they are too "fresh"? They have to learn the language first, every employer everywhere demands the applicants to speak the language that's dominant in the work environment.
You won't have such issues if god forbids, the rich Arabic countries that invest heavily in the destruction of Syria, take these refugees instead. Foreigners make up more than 30% of Saudi Arabia population, 10 millions, all them are there to work in the private sector because the private sector doesn't prefer unfit and lazy local workers. Saudi Arabia doesn't even allow the private sector to bring in Syrian professionals anymore, and yet, Europe is demanded to do more towards people who need a lot of time before being a productive part of the society. Certainly a lot more time than they would've needed in Saudi and Qatar.
