Abstract:	The integration of refugees into the labor market has become one of the most important issues of the news and also of the society. The topic is influenced because of revolts and debates against the integration of refugees in the German labor market. The public opinion is divided on this subject. The thesis deals with the question ‘How can the process of obtaining a residence permit for asylum seekers be adjusted in order to facilitate their integration into the German labor market?’, based on review of related literature and conducted interviews with involved stakeholders. This identifies factors that could improve the process of obtaining a residence permit and also facilitate the integration into the labor market. Moreover, the identification of weaknesses is observable within the process. Key assumptions of the thesis are 1.) a faster procedure for giving asylum seekers a residence permit will help them to integrate into the labor market and 2.) a faster process of obtaining a residence permit that provides access to integration or German language courses conducts to greater participation of migrants into the labor market. Both hypotheses are proven during the research. Factors such as the abbreviation of time for the procedure or a better access to German language courses take to a successful integration into the labor market.
