Women with a refugee background are under-represented on the training market, and their vocational training pathways have also been the object of very little academic research to date. The article addresses this research gap. Qualitative interviews from the research and development project FEMPower are used as a basis to analyse the extent to which companies providing training fail sufficiently consider this group as potential skilled workers. The article adopts a critical and analytical perspective to identify intersectional hurdles and to formulate practice-related recommendations for a more inclusive human resources policy.
