Failure for skilled workers in the district: Integration of migrants in focus!

In the district of Waldeck-Frankenberg, the area largest in Hesse, the integration of people with a history of migration into the labor market is rethought. In a recently held information event, it has been shown how important it is to understand immigration as an opportunity. According to Kommunal.de , a shortage of skilled workers will be expected of around 10,000 jobs by 2030. This gap should be closed through targeted measures and the integration of international specialists.

The district offers companies, from global market leaders to start-ups, a wide range of options. In a collaboration between the district college, the district craftsmen and the Robert Bosch Foundation, a pilot project was launched for the integration of immigrants. This project stands for the change that the district strives for. With a focus on social integration and long -term employment perspectives, immigration from different countries of origin can be seen as a potential source for the local labor market.

challenges and opportunities

However, the challenges should not be underestimated. According to Menschen-migrations-in-in-arbeitsmarkt-integrieren Language barriers, bureaucratic hurdles and uncertainties in dealing with xenophobia. The first district deputy Karl-Friedrich Frese emphasizes the need for a dialogue with companies to find solutions. The integration officer Latif Hamamiyeh al-Homssi also emphasizes the potential of the immigrants for the district.

The event served as a prelude to further exchange and discussion platforms. As Christopher Max Hechsel, professional and language scout, emphasizes, is crucial for a cross-service cooperation in order to reduce the bureaucratic barriers and to give the immigrants the support they need.

attractive solutions for specialists

At the national level, the problem of specialist defects is reinforced by various factors. According to bpb.de , the demographic development affects that fewer and fewer people enter the labor market. There is a particularly high need in craft and nursing professions, while a large part of the immigrants have difficulty getting used to the new work culture.

In order for integration to be successful, a concept for recognition abroad was developed. In addition, a mentoring program for potential trainees and workers is to be launched. Information offers, such as a planned company encyclopedia to support network work, are intended to help the immigrants successfully gain a foothold.

summarized: The Waldeck-Frankenberg district is actively committed to integrating people with a history of migration into the labor market and thus not only strengthening the economy, but also promoting a harmonious social coexistence. The great initiatives show that the region is ready to use the potential of the immigrants.
