Report says migrant groups from Africa have higher unemployment rates

The data on migrants born in 100 countries compares differences in educational qualifications, English-language skills, unemployment and job quality to Irish people. It finds that most migrant groups of working age are more likely to hold a third-level qualification compared to those born in Ireland.

This, according to the study, may be related to the trauma and disruption experienced by protection applicants prior to and during migration, or time spent in the protection system particularly if it is prolonged. The report notes that those of Black ethnicity have a higher unemployment rate than those of White ethnicity, but says the disadvantage for those born in many African countries remains even within ethnic groups.

It also finds that migrants born in EU countries have lower rates of unemployment than other migrants. The report's authors say this is likely due to differences in the entry routes from different countries of birth: non-EU migrants who enter Ireland via the work permit system come to work in high-skilled jobs; EU migrants have unrestricted access and do not need to be highly skilled. Meanwhile, the Immigrant Council of Ireland is also launching its 2019 annual report today.

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely Action plan I think thats a great idea. But I also think ugly people are discriminated against and should be included. Good lucking people have beauty priviledge. You never see ugly people represented on RTE and in general they are oppressed.

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely Yay diversity!

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely RTE stirring the shit bucket once again.

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely Basically u want to outlaw any criticism ..and non nationals (immigrants) should get preferential treatment over nationals .. Bottom line is nobody asked u to come to Ireland ..

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely Another NGO that needs to be defunded.

immigrationIRL AilbheConneely 'action plan' eh!! Victor Orban has a much better 'plan' for looking after his country's interests, culture ...

Of course they have as most only want the benefits.

The IT sector in Ireland reeks of racism. You lower the tax rate to attract multinational companies to Ireland but then you only hire inexperienced young Irish males. Fact.

Well they wouldn't work in their own countries why would they work here

The report by a tax payer funded immigration NGO highlighted the higher levels of unemployment among Black African migrants here compared to Irish, Asian and EU citizens....draw your own conclusions welfare

Soooo , who cares , because they don’t , our welfare system looks after them. So I’m not only working for my family I’m killing my self supporting these lot too

Yeah because they only came here 20 years ago and that’ll fix it self the more they come into our society and because they didn’t get a good education in Africa retards

I’m so sad to see such horrible replies to this tweet . Then again I forgot it’s Twitter. Shameful 💔🖤🖤🖤

So why are we importing them? Send them home. Let them build their own countries.

Any African newsreaders on RTÉ?

Anyone surprised?

Lets blame whitie again eh? Maybe RTE should sack and replace some of their privaleged staff.

Of course! Be mad to work with the amount of free money on offer in Ireland! I remember being in the post office a while back and the African lady in front of me was handed €705 in cash. Imagine getting that every week for doing nothing?

Don't want To Work.. Scammers Most of Them.

They contribute fuck all to society due to the lavish social welfare benefits we dish out. We are the pot of gold at the end of the European rainbow. It's better to sit on your hole all day in Ireland than work. Most are a bunch of wasters

It’s because they don’t like to work

Each to their own. They prefer to sit back and chill out. Works not for everyone

Make more money by not working!?

Why is RTÉ trying to stir things? Hoping for some violence here too?

Didn’t need a repot to tell us that

Why was the study itself not linked?
