answer text <p>The Home Office does not collect the information required to calculate the total number of people granted refugee status who are in employment in the UK for any point in time.</p><p>We recognise the difficulties refugees can face when looking for work. We have funded a pilot project to provide additional employment support to refugees resettled through the Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme and we will share the learning from this pilot with the Department for Work and Pensions and others.
