Barriers to Professional Integration of Educated Ukrainian Immigrants into the Czech Labour Market

The article aims to answer a research question: “What challenges do educated Ukrainian female immigrants experience in the Czech labour market?”. The text defines the local, regional and national legal framework for the integration of immigrants into the labor market in the Czech Republic. Thirty semi-structured interviews were conducted in two phases as part of a qualitative research strategy. These interviews involved educated Ukrainian female immigrants aiming to re-enter their previous occupations in the Czech labour market. The study focuses on the negative aspects of immigrants' labour integration, as they can play a vital role in the external factors' influence on the three levels of immigrants' integration: individual, local and policy. We categorised the factors into specific areas and subareas based on their origin.
