Disclaimer: This information is made available as a service to the public but has not been edited or approved by the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions. The content is the responsibility of the authors. In this national contribution questions are answered on the labour market situation of migrants and, whenever data are available, on the working conditions of these workers in Belgium. A selection of statistics is presented and references are made to more qualitative studies. This Report intends to investigate the employment and working conditions of migrant workers, that is of persons who migrate from one country to another for any reasons and work as employees or self-employed in the country of destination. Clearly, migrants workers include both EU citizens and non-EU citizens moving from their country of origin to one of the countries covered by this study.

The general objective is to compare the employment and working conditions of non-nationals and nationals
