The purpose of this section is to give an overview of Ireland, its history & culture. It is also to reference cultural / religious differences that may have an impact on the needs of an employee from a migrant background and considerations which should be given by their employer.

Swift Integration

Swift Integration, a partnership between The Open Community, Positive2Work Skillnet and the Department of Social Protection, aims to support those who have been granted refugee status, subsidiary protection status, or permission to remain in Ireland as they start a new chapter in their life.

They have developed an app which provides clear and concise information designed to empower newcomers to access information and supports that improve cultural integration and employment opportunities. Find out more and download the app.
