Published by Statista Research Department, Dec 16, 2022

The survey results suggest that immigration was more frequently perceived as having a negative effect on employment prospects among respondents in elementary and VMBO level education. 35 percent of respondents with a VMBO level education agreed that their chances of finding work were lower due to immigration, while just four percent of respondents at a university level (WO)education thought this was the case.

Do you agree with the statement: "My chances to find a job are worse because of immigrants"?*
