The gap in unemployment rates between the foreign-bom and the natives is wide (Figure 10). Foreign-bom women show a particularly weak attachment to the labour market as they are more often inactive than native women. The foreign-bom have also lower income than the natives and, thus, are more exposed to poverty risk. Those coming from outside the European Union and through the family and asylum channels, who made up more than 70% of immigrant flows between 2006 and 2008, are less educated and younger than the natives, which make them more likely to suffer from labour market exclusion (OECD, 2011b, Table 4).
