abstract: 'This article examines refugee women''s experience with settlement
|
|
|
|
agencies and their employment outcomes in Canada. Based on qualitative
|
|
|
|
data, we found that employment was not a priority to settlement agencies
|
|
|
|
with many counselors referring the women to low-skilled, low-waged
|
|
|
|
positions with companies with whom they had pre-existing ties.
|
|
|
|
Meanwhile, counselors found themselves burdened with large workloads and
|
|
|
|
felt inadequately equipped to serve the needs of refugees. Through this
|
|
|
|
study, we propose policy recommendations that address women''s
|
|
|
|
disproportional barriers that can be integrated within programs and
|
|
|
|
services offered by settlement agencies to improve employment
|
|
|
|
integration.'
