3 Immigration flows of refugees to Germany 2014 until mid

4 Selection & Socio-demographic Structure of Refugees No representative data are available for Germany, but first indications from self-reported information during registration of asylum seekers at BAMF Demographic selection: Disproportionately young cohort (56% of Asylum seeker are <25) High shares of men (>70%) Educational selection: Schooling attainment is relatively favorable ~70% without post-secondary educational/vocational degree 4

10 Insights from past refugee cohorts No reliable data is available providing evidence regarding labor market integration of recent refugee waves In 2016, IAB in cooperation with BAMF and DIW-SOEP have started a panelsurvey of recent refugee immigrants ~1.600 People, who came to Germany as asylum seekers/refugees since 2013 Precise information about histories of migration, education, and employment, aspirations, housing, wages, values, etc. IAB-SOEP-Migration Sample allows to provide insights from past refugee cohorts Refugee migration since the mid 1990s Comparable educational structure Important countries: Western Balkans, Middle East/Afghanistan, Turkey Precise information regarding wage and employment due to record-linkage to IEB-data Evidence indicates how the labor market integration may recur 10

11 Qualification structure of refugees, migrated between to Germany 11

12 Employment rate as % of respective workingage population 12

13 Median wages of refugees & regular immigrants as % of median wages of natives 13

14 Labor Market Integration What helps? Evidence from microdata German language proficiency Immigrants with very good German language skills compared to those with bad language skills: Employment rate +15 %-Points Job-Skill Mismatch -20 %-Points Wages +22 % 14

15 Recommendation for labor market policies Ensuring legal certainty Fast asylum procedure, longer residence permits, possibilities for lane change. Improving language proficiencies tailor-made and on-the-job language courses. Supporting educational investments 56% of refugees are <25. Integration in schools as well as resuming educational degrees are essential for a successful labor market performance. Acknowledgement of degrees and non-formal skills 15
