The Ministry of Employment and the Economy published a new report today in examining “an overall review of integration of immigrants in Finland” as well as to see “how immigrants get work, their participation in society, their housing conditions, income levels and school dropout rates.”
The Ministry said, “the report indicates that public services and measures have been developed to correspond to the increased numbers of immigrants. Nevertheless, basic services still need to be developed and special services are needed alongside them.”
The publication was produced by a private company Ramboll Management Consulting. The company did not comment on the methodology or financial seed of the research.
The reports suggests that the longer an immigrant has been in Finland, the closer his or her living conditions are to those of the native population.
Differences among immigrant groups are nevertheless great. The situation of young people is particularly problematic, and gender also has significance in integration.
