Diversity Management as leader to a successful integration of refugees into the German labor market

Seminar paper from the year 2019 in the subject Sociology - Politics, Majorities, Minorities, grade: 2,0, Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: The research question of this paper is, "How does Diversity Management lead to a successful integration of refugees into the German labour market?" In order to answer this question, this research paper first gives an overview of the term "Diversity Management" with its definition and objectives. Furthermore, the current refugee crisis will be analysed in short, by giving an introduction of the term "refugee" itself and an overview of the facts and figures of the current crisis as well as the legal requirements for entering the German labour market. The last and biggest part will deal with the integration of refugees into the labour market. By doing so, special attention is payed to the measures of the Diversity Management and the arising benefits that come along with that. During the last decades, Germany has become a country of diversity. This is not only justified by an increasing number of immigrants, but also because of the current refugee crisis. In most cases, the refugee crisis is stated as something negative, but it is possible to turn this negative thinking into a positive one. With the help of a successful Diversity Management, all these incoming refugees are able to be integrated into the German labor market. They can set the basis for new workforces in German companies and prevent shortages, since a lack of qualified workers due to the demographic change will arise in the close future.
