Germany changing laws to attract migrant labor | DW News

I'm from India and listening.
I love beer and sausage.

lets be real its not that they had less apprentices they just don't want to pay them right so they rather exploit people from abroat

Bring labor from Ghana, Vietnam, India, Sri Lanka, Kenya etc. just don’t bring them from Pakistan, Syria, Libya or Middle East! Some people will always assimilate while others will try and bring you to the 7th century

Indian can speak there 3main language including English . but German can't speak one English word 😂

This is partially true. Germany still put lot of constraint and pain even for very high skill people who applied for JSV especially from India.

Mostly indians right

All lie there are germans who are highly skilled but company don’t hire them because they are expensive. Immigrants from india are cheap

I’m a professional forklift operator interested to move to Germany..anyone here to help

..... its wrong to fill gaps just by immigration..... Germany is overpopulated..... we should reduce Population, expell illegal immigrants, what is the point of loosing our identity jzst for the sake of companies wanting to make profit...... i think we have ti talk....... the working force Argument was always wrong, we failed with the turkish after the war......

Not true. The image Germany is portraying out there is so different from the reality!

Their economy is crashing so fast that soon they will have no problem with workers.😂😂😂

What confuse me is when my uncle was coming to Germany he's ticket was sweden to Köln airport no one in airport spoke English so I drove my car to him

imagine germany without germans 😆

Germany 🇩🇪 should get back NordStream pipeline.Since they lost industrial 🏭 powerhouse

Wat about skilled professionals like expert engineers and highly skilled Project managers? Germany doesn’t need them ?

There is nothing wrong with legal, orderly immigration which means striving for full assimilation into German society. However, It is wrong to start with the assumption that every immigrant has to have a permanent status. Look at the UAE. Out of every 10 residents, 9 are foreign workers. Only 1 in 10 is an Emirati. The 90% workers are given a contract and temporary resideny. Nobody expects or is promised citizenship. It's not necessary to make them citizens to work in the country. In the case of Germany, it is OK to allow some people to become citizens but this will only work if the newcomer is willing to fully integrate into German society and become German. It will not work if the newcomer doesn't want to integrate and they still want to live like "back home." Then, their status should stay "temporary guest worker." In immigrant countries, such as the US, Argentina, Brazil, etc, we approach immigration from the idea that the goal is full integration and assimilation. Words like "diversity" and "parallel cultures" are not part of the program. Diversity programs keep people foreign, makees them outsiders, and interferes with their integration into the society.

Bro are they restricting immigration or making immigration easier?

Germany deserves this, I have applied for a state funded training as a software developer (as there are lots of jobs) and was denied, even though I cannot practice my current job anymore. I am a EU citizen and have lived here for 5 years. Suck it up Germany!

Hire me! I'm a Software engineer!

Nobody has to move anywhere! Remote office facilities anywhere in the World enable communication instantly. True, needed Management is necessary for communication concerning projects when needed as well as Team Meetings, but to meet demand locally?? Outside of digging a ditch, why?

It always looks greener on the other side until you get there

Lol, goodbye germany. You got deleted for good.

Germany needs workers, so they want foreign workers yet they're sacking the one's they have already. Using basket to fetch water. Why then you help those without documents get one and continue to live there.

Since 9 years I am working as engineer, after 8 years I could apply for the citizenship and still no answer and my dual citizenship is not accepted.

Don't worry highly skilled technicians and doctors from Africa and the the middle east are on their way thanks to human smugglers .

Sure! Buy off manpower from breeding centers

Industrial engineer with over 18 years of work experience one year without a job. B2 lvl German and yet nothing. I really cannot agree with the statement that skill workers are missing. It is payment and discrimination.

I’m trying to move to Germany. I have a high powered career in tech, but I’m moving to be with my boyfriend. We want to get married and have children. I want to work as well. I’m learning German right now in the US. The only thing that was weird is I did get made fun of as a one off comment for being too pale but maybe that group was just trying to be funny. I just don’t get the humor

Young people can't afford housing in normal age... and you after their cynically saying something

German salaries are among the worst in OECD for the productivity demand for a specific job. Add to that sky high tax and social security contribution. E.g. a technical architect working for Oracle in Houston would get salaries in range of 200,000 USD p.a., whereas his equivalent with a tertiary degree in CS from major German Technische Universitäten, would command 62,000 EUR before tax, transpirng into a paltry 3000 Euro per month after all deductions, that too in an expensive city like Munich or Hamburg. From Europe, only Switzerland can match urban US skilled job salaries (even London and Luxembourg would be far behind).
PS: German median wealth ownership is worse than Malta and Slovenia, and at par with Greece and Portugal.

I want to go Germany how can get there legally?

You work for them then soon enough they want to kick you back to your country after using you no future in fireign countries

Good report. So often in english-speaking countries these types of reports become sensationalistic and emotional, this was level-headed and well done.
I moved to Germany as an engineer, work mostly in english in a team of 80% non-germans and this project would be much harder to do with less immigration. Our team is somewhat supported in learning german which is very very important and those who want to learn can. I myself will go for C1 next year.
I tell others you do have to expect lower pay compared to other many other countries but the living conditions are typically much better.

You notice how the florigen guy got a job getting others foreigners a job?

Germany need cheap immigrants with good German, proper diploma, Ausbildung and ready to work till pension without salary rise 😅

I think this the fact of life. If you're a business owner of a billion dollars company or a small restaurant, you want every costs low, so you can profit more. If you can't find it in your homeland, you move overseas to get lower paid labors, or get part time students to work in you small business, or hiring low paid au pairs from abroad. It's not only in Germany, Europe, USA. It's everywhere in the world. When you put yourself as an employer, as the one who pays the expense, you will do the same either you're a billionaire or au pair employer.

When workers get more rights protected by law, Executives and Owners go to people that happy enough to get less. Especially when more people think living life without progeny is burden-free. Well, yes it is, but who will pay taxes for your pensions, health care, elderly care, maternity leaves, education, unemployment, and all other subsidies in 10-20 years to come?

So if humans have ever learned from history, the change should be from the business owners who support and financially contribute the political leaders, because these political leaders would return the favor by making regulations that benefit their contributors as priorities.

Germany is not attractive at all for Software Engineers: high taxes, high costs, new language to learn from scratch, bad weather, cold people...

P.S: As a software Engineer you will remain at the end of the month with more money in your pocket in Romania than in Germany. Netto salaries are almost similar in Romania and Germany already.

If you work overtime in Germany, the state slaps you with such a tax that it is absolutely not worth it

I still can't imagine why the Germans don't wanna ve more children,it baffles me, don't dey know that people from Africa and Asia will only destroy Europe,if these immigrants are good,why didn't they develop their homeland

The guy in the middle, smiling with his cellphone in his hands: Is he real or is it a picture" In either caae, it is very annoying.

I am from Uganda but I can't relocate to Germany. I have watched many documentaries about Germany bureaucracy .. honestly I'm considering to move to montenegro as fast as I can before it joins the EU..

I am also looking job opportunity in Germany 😊

With the declining birth rate unlikely to get reversed anytime soon, by the end of the century, most of advanced western countries populations will become non white majority.

but it would be difficult.

In european countries earing salary and expense will be near same so workers can't save enough

Maybe Germany should do what most of the USA has done........ban abortions, zero exceptions! 🤷‍♀️

You need for their families new flats, new schools, hospitals, power plants, water resources, infrastructure ..., so result can be zero 0.

hi germans, we can give you Kurds. they are western friendly, lgbt friendly, woke, democratic, secular, liberal Kurds. you are gonna love them ?

More illegal immigration? Good luck germany.
