The fundamentals of migration-sensitive, employment-oriented counseling are:
Knowledge of the legal framework: This includes labor and immigration law, asylum legislation, the Employment Regulation, and Book II of the Social Code (SGB II). You can find more detailed information on the legal framework in the“Legal Framework” section.
Knowledge of local structures: Local labor market integration structures include, for example, public employment agencies, migrant self-help organizations, associations, and other useful points of contact.
Overcoming language barriers: Simple rules of plain language enable you to reduce language barriers during counseling sessions. You can find information on plain language on the “Plain Language” page. The use of language mediators, visual aids, and multilingual informational materials can also support you in your day-to-day work.
