A Strategic Approach to Labour Migration
Labour migration is one of the means in the EU’s toolbox to face skills shortages across sectors from healthcare to construction, agriculture, technology and green industries. Effective labour mobility policies are essential to filling critical gaps, fostering innovation and sustaining Europe’s economic growth. At the same time, demographic shifts, ageing populations, and the twin transitions—green and digital—are reshaping the demand for skills and workforce mobility across the world.
Environmental factors are becoming increasingly important in managing labour migration dynamics. Climate change is both a driver of displacement and a catalyst for new labour market and green economy demands. The EU’s commitment to climate neutrality by 2050 requires a skilled workforce in emerging sectors such as renewable energy, sustainable infrastructure, and sustainable agriculture.
Managing labour migration effectively means also prioritising skills development, recognition of qualifications, and targeted training programmes that align with the emerging qualifications that the labour market needs.
