In France, in 2021, nearly one out of two people sleeping or living in shelters were not allowed to work. Indeed, most of the people living in these emergency housing units were foreigners, and they did not always have the authorization to work in the country. On the other hand, among the people living in shelters, 24 percent had the right to work but were unemployed, and 15 percent had a job.
