Five interviews were conducted with the administrators at the unemployment office and the results were analyzed based on previous research, the political perspective and the structural perspective. The results indicated that the newly arrived immigrants entered the work force sooner when part of the settlement reform.

Sammanfattning
I december 2010 trädde etableringsreformen i kraft. Detta innebar att ansvaret för integrationen av nyanlända flyttades från kommun till Arbetsförmedling.

Resultatet påvisade att de nyanlända snabbare kom in på arbetsmarknaden med... (More)

Resultatet påvisade att de nyanlända snabbare kom in på arbetsmarknaden med etableringsreformen, men intervjuerna visade också att den begränsade tiden som handläggarna har till sitt förfogande medför att vissa nyanlända har svårare att komma ut i arbetslivet pga. varierande resurser och icke individanpassade insatser.
