“Day Welt” has dedicated two articles today to the employment theme of foreigners in Germany.
“A job in Germany, many people in Western Balkan countries see this as the only way out of unemployment in their homeland. Applicants will have to wait a year in part until the German Embassys in their countries release their work visa. However, in the first eight months of the year, it has increased by 70% to 63,000 numbers of working visas issued by the Federal Employment Agency”, writes the newspaper “Di Welt”, referring to data it possesses.
One in three working visas for third countries, according to those data, has passed an applicant from Western Balkan countries. Relief of procedures for people from countries like Albania, Kosovo or Bosnia and Herzegovina has been applied since the beginning of 2016.
The reason is: Many asylum seekers from Western Balkan countries came at the peak of the refugee influx in 2015. German authorities were unprepared by this flood by being overloaded with refugees from Syria.
Since for Balkan residents the reason for leaving the country was economic, the federal government established a new regulation for these countries by declaring them safe places. (...) Under such conditions there is no longer a right to asylum, writes DW.
Thus, since 2016, employment candidates from these countries can apply for a working visa. The only condition is for them to have a concrete job offer from Germany. They are not required a minimum qualification or minimum wage, as in the case of the so-called “Blue Card”, which is designed for specialists. (...) Work visas have largely been issued for workers at the construction branch, but there is also a need for work in the gastronomial, service and care sector for the elderly.
In Berlin this model is considered successful and is being discussed whether the valid regulation by 2020 could extend to other countries other than the Balkans as well. in West African regions, to have organized migration.
In an analysis of the Friedrich-Ebert Foundation, the regulation for the Western Balkans, it says, <x0-bart big potential on the road to an innovative migration policy”, writes “Die Welt”.
