Union asks for approval of work permits
The IG Metall union has asked the German government to approve work permits for skilled workers from non-EU countries more quickly. Union boss Jörg Hofmann said on Tuesday that companies are increasingly complaining about a lack of skilled workers. “We have to make it easier for skilled workers to come to Germany and work here,” Hofmann demanded.
According to Hofmann, the approval of work permits currently takes too long. “Companies often have to wait for months or even years,” he criticized. This delays important projects and jeopardizes jobs.
The union boss called on the federal government to create a fast-track procedure for the approval of work permits. “We need a solution that allows companies to get the skilled workers they need quickly and unbureaucratically,” Hofmann said.
The German government is currently working on a new immigration law. This law is intended to make it easier for skilled workers from non-EU countries to come to Germany and work here. However, it is still unclear when the new law will come into force.
