Migrant and refugee workers in Australia face many challenges in their working lives, such as limited English speakers having a more challenging time getting jobs (Refugee Council of Australia, 2019). Employers often need to recognise overseas work experience (Refugee Council of Australia, 2019). A similar employment history in Australia is required of applicants, and a significant number of new arrivals can't find jobs that provide them with the experience they need to work in Australia (Refugee Council of Australia, 2019). 

Education for migrant/refugee people in Australia are difficult 

as they come with little English and have limited or different education in the past, which is a challenge in studying or training (Refugee Council of Australia, 2019). Australia offers different ways to study, from studying at all education levels, from primary and secondary school to vocational education and training (VET), from English language courses to higher education, which includes universities and TAFE. (Refugee Council of Australia, 2019). 

Poor diet and not enough dietary intake due to food insecurity increase the risk of acquiring chronic illnesses such as obesity, heart disease, diabetes, depression, and cancer (Right To Food, 2021). Risk factors of poor mental and physical health include the trauma and violence experienced by refugees, as well as their displacement from their country of origin and loss of family and community support (Right To Food, 2021). According to research studies, between 35% and 90% of refugees and migrants endure food insecurity, with 11% to 40% of individuals reporting extreme hunger (Right To Food, 2021). This level of food insecurity exceeds the 4% to 18% range that is often estimated for the entire Australian population (Right To Food, 2021).

Mental health
According to the World Health Organisation (2023), mental health means managing stress, realizing one's potential, learning and working effectively, and contributing to society. Many refugees who are children and adults suffer from mental health due to experiencing conflict, trauma, family separation, significant human rights violations, sexual violence and torture (Australian Refugee Health, 2023). One treatment option for migrants/refugees suffering from mental health is psychological therapy (BetterHealth channel, 2023). 

Intestinal parasites
Intestinal parasites is a parasite that lives in the intestinal tract and takes food from other organisms (Australian Refugee Health, 2023). They are common in rural communities and in low-resource. Sub-Saharan Africa, the Americas, China, and East Asia are among the regions that are more likely to contract infections (Australian Refugee Health, 2023). One treatment option for suffering from intestinal parasites is giving medication such as albendazole, mebendazole, ivermectin and praziquantel (Health Direct, 2023).
