Deze ad hoc vraag onderzoekt de initiatieven die in EMN-leden (EU-lidstaten, uitgezonderd Denemarken) en waarnemerslanden bestaan om werkgevers aan te moedigen deel te nemen aan de integratie van hun werknemers.

In 2024, 19.435 people participated in the Social Orientation (Maatschappelijke Oriëntatie, MO) course in Flanders. This marks a significant increase in participation. Alongside the rising numbers of participants in the Social Orientation course, the demand for Dutch as a Second Language (NT2) courses also remains high, as evidenced by recent reports from AMAL vzw, Atlas Antwerp, and the Agency for Integration and Civic Integration.

In a recent judgment, the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) held that national legislation may oblige beneficiaries of international protection to pass a civic integration examination. However the fact of having failed such an examination cannot be systematically penalised by a fine.
