This study focuses on opportunities and difficulties for ex-convicts who want to leave the criminal lifestyle behind and to reintegrate into society. The most effective way of staying out of criminality is getting employment. But with today's stigmatisation of ex-convict in the labour market it is challenging for them to even get an interview or an employment. Because of this it leaves them no choice for them but to continue on the criminal pathway. In this study we will be interviewing employers of organisations who work with ex-convicts who want to leave that lifestyle behind them. What challenges are ahead of the ex-convicts, what setbacks they may meet and how they can help ex-convicts to be appealing in the labour market. The results show us that if the ex-criminals are committed enough they can definitely turn their life around and get employment. With the help of organisations who specialise in helping ex-convicts finding employment there is definitely a way. These organisations also help and guide them to live a drug and criminal free lifestyle to help them not recidivism.
