The master's thesis deals with a network of organizations and institutions, both governmental and non-governmental, that offer homeless people in Slovenia any form of employment opportunity for (re)entry into the labor market. The first part presents theoretical findings and concepts on homelessness, social exclusion, and vulnerable groups, as well as some important documents governing homelessness in Slovenia. Guidelines and proposals for combating homelessness are presented at the end of the theoretical part. The empirical part aims to explore the employment opportunities of the homeless; where and how people with experience of homelessness can re-enter the labor market in Slovenia, which organizations and institutions in Slovenia offer the opportunity to do so, and in what form. This master's thesis deals with the needs and limitations of homeless individuals in the field of employability in the eyes of professionals involved in the research and examines their opinion on the range of employment opportunities for the homeless in Slovenia. The work also deals with the role of the Republic of Slovenia in solving homelessness, and finally presents proposals for improving the quality of employment opportunities. A qualitative research approach was used for the purpose of obtaining a holistic picture and a framework of employment opportunities for people with experience of homelessness in Slovenia.
