Newcomers learn Dutch while they work (VIDEO)

Newcomers arriving in Belgium need to be in work far sooner.  At present only one in four finds a job during the first year after their integration course.  The Flemish government is eager to speed matters up.  One of the ways of doing this is by reducing the time newcomers spend in class and by making sure they get language training while they are at work.  In Halle (Flemish Brabant) at the HQ of supermarket chain Colruyt they have already been doing this for years.
