Inspiring More Sustainability (IMS) yesterday launched a new guide for those interested in recruiting third-country nationals, yet are unsure of the processes and requirements involved.
The "Migration to Employment" guide, aimed at Luxembourg employers, gives a quick overview of the terminology linked to the notion of "third country national", but also of the recruitment process. In addition, good practices guide employers towards small actions that can have a more global impact.
Employment is essential to integration for third-country nationals, who face many barriers, both administrative and linguistic, and for whom it is more than necessary to facilitate their access to employment.
In the heart of Europe, Luxembourg attracts citizens well beyond the borders of the European Union. As of 1 January 2016, there were 39,700 third-country nationals in Luxembourg, representing almost 14% of the total population. Yet some prejudices still persist, while third-country nationals bring real added value to organisations, the economy and society as a whole. However, they can not integrate alone.
The guide is available for download in French and English on the website: www.imslux.lu.
