European empoyers strongly support the European Commission’s proposal that was made as part of the Skills and Talent package in 2023.

There is significant potential for economic migration to play a greater role in helping to address the ongoing labour and skills shortages faced by employers across sectors throughout the EU.

To make Europe more attractive to job seekers from third countries and to facilitate matching between foreign workers and European employers, it is crucial that opportunities in the European labour markets are made more visible and accessible. An EU Talent Pool can help to make job vacancies offered by EU employers across borders transparent to a wider pool of job seekers. This would give companies a potentially larger selection of suitable candidates than is currently the case with national job placement instruments. It will be easier for candidates to look for jobs from third countries. A common EU platform can achieve economies of scale and thus help to better position Europe in the global competition for talent.

You can find more informaction and key provisions to ensure the success of the Talent Poolin in the attached document (on the left).

Employers call on the swift approval of the Regulation by the EU institutions.
