En busca de solidaridad en la política migratoria laboral europea

Abstract

The European Union (EU) legislator has recently adopted different legal frameworks regarding European labour migration policy. The admission of third-country nationals for employment purposes to meet the needs of the labour market must be considered as one of the main objectives in several EU Member States. Undoubtedly, the European labour market, increasingly geared towards attracting and retaining talent to foster growth and innovation potential, requires new workers from third countries. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to the adoption of unprecedented measures to address needs in several specific occupations with labour shortages, particularly related to healthcare skills.
