Migrant workers
Migrant workers: a valuable force for your organisation
Employing labour migrants is an effective solution for companies facing staff shortages. Especially in sectors such as manufacturing, logistics and engineering, migrant workers play a crucial role. They bring not only a strong work ethic, but also unique skills that are often hard to find locally. At Euro Planit, we understand the value of migrant workers and help companies find the right employees and successfully integrate them into their teams.
What are migrant workers?
Labour migrants are workers who come from another country to work temporarily or long-term in the Netherlands. In many cases, they are people from other European countries, such as Poland, Romania, Portugal and Spain. They are often looking for opportunities to use their skills and gain economic benefits for themselves and their families. For employers, they are a valuable source of motivated and qualified workers.
Due to the high demand for labour in certain sectors, such as the manufacturing and logistics industries, migrant workers have become an indispensable link in the Dutch economy. They help companies maintain production levels, meet deadlines and grow.
The benefits of migrant workers for your business
Working with migrant workers offers companies several advantages, such as:
In many sectors, finding enough suitable staff is a challenge. Migrant workers can fill this gap, especially in occupations where there is a local shortage of candidates. They offer a reliable solution for companies that would otherwise face lost production or a high workload.
Migrant workers often bring skills and experience that are scarce in the Netherlands. Consider, for example, skilled workers in engineering or manufacturing who specialise in specific machines or processes. This makes them indispensable for companies that depend on such expertise.
Migrant workers tend to be flexible and willing to start at short notice. This is especially useful during seasonal peaks or periods of extra busyness. Whether you are looking for temporary reinforcement or someone for a long-term project, migrant workers can be brought in quickly.
How Euro Planit helps you recruit migrant workers
At Euro Planit, we have years of experience in matching companies with migrant workers. We take care of the entire process of recruitment, selection and guidance, ensuring you get the right employees.
1. Recruitment and selection
We ensure that only qualified and motivated labour migrants are selected for your vacancy. We do this through thorough screening and by taking into account the specific requirements of your company.
2. Arranging permits and documents
An important aspect of working with labour migrants is complying with laws and regulations. At Euro Planit, we take this worry off your hands. We make sure that all necessary permits, contracts and documents are in order so that everything runs smoothly.
3. Guidance on integration
Migrant workers who receive proper guidance feel at home more quickly and are better able to focus on their work. That is why we support both employers and employees in the integration process. This can range from assistance with housing and transport to on-the-job guidance.
Working successfully with migrant workers
Successful cooperation with migrant workers starts with good preparation. Here are some tips to ensure a smooth integration:
- Ensure clear communication: Many migrant workers speak a different language. Make sure that important instructions are clearly conveyed, e.g. in English or through visual aids.
- Facilitate housing and transport: Migrant workers appreciate it when their housing and work logistics are well organised. This contributes to their satisfaction and motivation.
- Offer on-the-job support: A supervisor or mentor can help new employees get started quickly.
