This research has identified different factors that can stimulate or inhibit refugees’ integration in the labour market and society. Further more, the following study focuses on the analysis of the quality of outgroup support refugees can expect, during their integration process in Portugal. Using an online survey, information was gathered on different areas, such as the attitude towards refugees, the perception of their impact on the labour market and contact established with refugees. Results obtained showed a general positive attitude both towards the arrival of refugees in the country, as well as their integration in the labour market. While most participants had note stablished previous contact with refugees, media coverage in Portugal seems to have an indirect impact on the public’s image on refugees.engRefugee integrationLabour marketAcculturationSocial businessHuman resource managementSocial impactOutgroup supportMental healthHospitalityTraining programInhibiting and stimulating factors for the integration of refugees into the Portuguese labour market - Portuguese community analsyis and importance of outgroup supportmaster thesis202741974
