Labour Market Integration Policy and Long-Term Unemployment: A Case Study Western Sweden

Abstract [en]

Despite Sweden's commendable performance in integration policies, as highlighted by the Migration Integration Policy Index (MIPEX) 2020 report, non-European born (NEB) individuals continue to face significant barriers to integrating into the labour market. This thesis presents these challenges, focusing on how labour market policy influences NEB long-term unemployed in Western Sweden integration, and the perceptions for street-level bureaucrats’ role and labour market conditions in impacting the integration process.Designed as a single-case study, this thesis delves into the local context in Western Sweden’s labour market integration for NEB long-term unemployed, providing a nuanced understanding of these issues. The findings suggest that labour market policies can have positive impacts, but their success depends on the consideration of local context. Future research with broader samples and diverse perspectives, including longitudinal studies, is essential to further illuminate these findings.
