If the Swedish Parliament adopts a bill which the government presented at the beginning of May, it will be easier for citizens coming from outside the European Union to come work in Sweden from December 15, 2008 on. The employment situation is difficult because of the workforce shortage in many sectors, the bill systematically gives a work permit to migrant workers employed in conditions which respect Swedish legal and conventional regulations. (Ref. 080401)
This is a revolution: employment services (Arbetsförmedlingen) will no longer be in charge of taking into account recruitment troubles in a sector to issue an authorization, the employer only will be responsible.
