Women still remain underrepresented in the Dutch labour market. About half of the women in the Netherlands are not financially independent. That percentage is even higher for women with a refugee background. A large number of these women would like to work, but sometimes it is not easy to make this possible. That is why EY is offering a mentor program for talented women with a refugee background.
