Germany Works on Migrant Labor Conundrum
Keywords:
Germany is adjusting its requirements for residency permits and work permits for refugees. It will let asylum applicants take temporary jobs by 3 months after applying for asylum. Current law bans migrants from working through temp agencies for the first 4 years in Germany. The government will lower hurdles for job applicants who are refugees. Government policy of Angela Merkel's coaltion is- "people who have the right to protection and stay in Germany permanently should find employment rapidly and earn their living themselves." This is critical to the large effort to absorb about 1 million refugees in 2015, as it will meet the needs of companies and not cost the government additional outlays for social payments to refugees. The initial response from companies such as SAP, Thyssen Krupp, and smaller companies has been very positive, and shows why Germany is uniquely positioned of all EU countries to be able to take on this challenge on both humanitarian and mutually beneficial basis.
Germany's 1.1. million job vacancies in 2015 and the effort to find jobs for refugees from Syria and other countries

Germany had 1.1 million job vacancies in the 2nd quarter of 2015, according to the Institute of Employment Research, and the situation is likely to lead to more vacancies with the aging population as more workers retire. German companies are actively working with the government to train new workers.

Germany's effort to absorb 800,000 migrants at the local level in cities and towns- Erfurt, Thuringia
09/11/2015
From the small town of Erfurt, Germany, Katrin Bennhold provides this exceptional report in the NYT of how one city in the heart of Germany with a medieval past is coping with the influx of refugees. Under Germany's quota system, Thuringia gets 2.5% of new refugees and Erfurt 20% of that. How well the experiment works depends on how it is working at the local level.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
