New integration program: Immigrants have to participate from day one!

Deutschland - The Federal Government has made a fundamental decision to implement a mandatory integration program for immigrants. This program should apply from the first day of arrival and was aimed at asylum and subsidiary protectionists and displaced persons. The aim of the program that has been designed for over three years is to improve the integration of migrants by combining language and labor market promotion. In this context, a strict focus is on the acquisition of the German language.

according to 5min.at includes the offer mandatory German courses in which the participants have to demonstrate their language stand. In addition, the basic rule courses and preparation for the labor market are part of the program. The program is supported by various actors, including ministries, the federal states, the Austrian Integration Fund and the Labor Market Service (AMS).

follow when not participating

The government plans to introduce sanctions for those who do not participate in the integration program. This includes cuts in services and administrative penalties. If German courses are not passed, we even intended to do grabs or deductibles. The press reports that an "integration allowance" is granted instead of social assistance during the integration phase. The entitlement to full social benefits only exists after the success of the integration phase or with a sufficient number of fully insured months.

The ministers and the Neos club chairman emphasize that a well-thought-out approach is necessary for the reform of social assistance to promote and demand integration. The expected acceptance of European basic values is clearly communicated as part of the program.

integration as a social task

The idea of integration is not new. As bpb.de was recognized late as a country of immigration, and the responsibility for the integration of migrants was long at the well-being And municipalities. It was only with the immigration law of 2005 that integration was laid down as an obligation of the federal government and reinforced by measures such as integration courses for immigrants.

The discussion about integration now not only includes linguistic aspects, but is increasingly being viewed as an economic necessity. Integration policy in Germany demands both funding and claims and aims to enable migrants: to enable the participation in society inside.
