Integration of Romanian residents into the labour market in Belgium

Abstract

The Romanian community in Belgium has evolved in recent years following a dynamic and closely linked to the European integration process of Romania. The ties with Romania have been marked by the political and historical evolutions in our country, as they reactivated and intensified gradually after 1989. The successive democratic changes in Romania have positively influenced the relations of the Belgian state with the institutions of the Romanian state as well as the general climate within the Belgian community. Romanians are mostly well integrated into the most diverse socio-professional backgrounds (scientific, university, artistic, liberal professions), especially in the Francophone space.
