While welcoming the fact that victims of trafficking who have been granted the reflection period have the right to work, GRETA considers that the Norwegian authorities should ensure that victims can benefit from this right in practice, and should further strengthen effective access to, and/or reintegration of, the labour market for victims of THB and their economic and social inclusion through the provision of vocational training and job placement, raising awareness amongst employers, and the promotion of micro-businesses, social enterprises and publicprivate partnerships, including through state supported employment programmes, with a view to creating appropriate work opportunities for victims of trafficking
