Employment Opportunities (AGH)

Work opportunities are low-barrier employment activities that are not subject to social security contributions but are in the public interest (e.g., jobs at a nonprofit organization). When work opportunities are used to familiarize recognized refugees with the labor market, this is referred to as refugee integration measures (FIM). This labor market program expired on December 31, 2020.
