abstract: 'The current surge in forced migration to Europe is probably the largest
and most complex since the Second World War. As population aging
accelerates and fertility falls below replacement level, immigration may
be seen as a key component of human capital to address labor and skill
shortages. Receiving countries are, however, hesitant about the
contribution that forced migrants can make to the local economy. Coupled
with increasing pressure on welfare services, they are associated with
increased job competition and crime. Underutilization of immigrants''
skills is, however, a waste of resources that countries can scarcely
afford. Understanding the labor market integration process of forced
migrants is thus critical to develop policies that unleash their full
skills potential and ultimately foster local economic productivity.
While prior studies have examined the employment and salary outcomes of
these immigrants at a particular point in time post-migration, they have
failed to capture the temporal dynamics and complexity of this process.
Drawing on administrative data from Sweden, we examine the occupational
pathways of forced migrants using sequence analysis from their arrival
in 1991 through to 2013. Findings reveal polarized pathways of long-term
labor market integration with over one-third of refugees experiencing a
successful labor market integration pathway and an equally large share
facing a less fruitful employment outcomes. Our findings suggest
education provision is key to promote a more successful integration into
the local labor market by reducing barriers of cultural proximity and
increasing the occurrence of entrepreneurship activity.'
