1. Are refugees allowed to work?
Yes, regardless of their status (refugee B or C permit, F permit or S status).

People whose asylum procedure is still under review (N permit) also have the right to work after 3 to 6 months' residence. Employment may be limited to certain sectors, and must in principle give priority to residents.

For further information, see the "Refugees & employment" brochure, available here.
2. What is the procedure for hiring a young person with refugee status?
To hire a person holding a B refugee, F refugee or F status permit, simply fill in a registration form on the EasyGov.swiss online portal, or via the registration form available on the portal of the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM).

In the case of an N permit or S status, the employer must first request authorization from the relevant cantonal authority, which will check that the working conditions are respected.
