Project information: Work opportunities for asylum seekers

Work opportunities for asylum seekers according to §5 AsylbLG support the introduction to daily structure and work routnes. They facilitate later integration into the labor market in Germany. The Stuttgart Social Welfare Office must agree to participation in the project.

 

  • Participation: Participation is voluntary. It ends, for example, when the asylum procedure is completed. Or when switching to a language course.
  • Target group: Asylum seekers according to § 1 Para. 1 AsylbLG who are able to work but do not have a job. You must be between 18 and 65 years old. Anyone who goes to school is not allowed to take part.
  • Working hours: You may work 15 to 25 hours per week.
  • Allowance for expenses: You receive an allowance of 0.80 euros from the social welfare office for every hour you work.
  • Reimbursement of travel costs: If the journey to work is longer than 3 kilometers, you will be reimbursed for bus and train fares for each working day.

Information: Non-profit organisation Schwäbische Tafel Stuttgart

Yesterday's bread, yoghurt that no longer has a long shelf life or unsold fruit and vegetables: this is all food that would end up in the bin. The non-profit organization collects the food. People in need can buy the food at a low price with the Bonus Card in the food bank store.

The project Save food. Help people offers the opportunity to help out as a store assistant in the food bank.

 

The work in the food bank store includes

  • Sorting and preparing food
  • Keeping the food bank store and work areas clean
  • Checking the best-before date of the food
  • Getting to know German work structures
  • Learning new skills and German in everyday working life in order to find a job more quickly later on
  • Making personal contacts outside the accommodation
  • Support from the GJB social services in case of issues at the workplace and for orientation in the world of work. The social service works together with the social welfare office and the social service of the accommodation.

The project is carried out in cooperation between the GJB and Schwäbische Tafel Stuttgart e.V. . The GJB organizes the project and provides socio-educational support for the participants, while Schwäbische Tafel Stuttgart e.V. is responsible for providing work guidance.

Are you interested in taking part in the project?

 

We organize group information events for interested asylum seekers. We plan the information events together with the social services of the shared accommodation. They take place in the AGH workplaces.

You can then get to know the job site, activities and rules. And decide whether you would like to work there.

 

We then quickly clarify with the Stuttgart Social Welfare Office whether participation in the project is possible.
