New agreement between Italy and Thailand: 30,000 workers per year expected
The Italian government has initiated a series of official talks with Thailand to facilitate the entry of foreign workers into our country. The main objective is to welcome approximately 30,000 Thai workers each year, thereby responding to the growing demand for labor in various Italian production sectors.
The proposal was discussed during a meeting between the Italian Minister of Labor and Social Policies and the Thai Minister of Labor, Julapun Amornvivat. This agreement aims to create an official and secure channel for labor migration, fostering closer economic cooperation between Rome and Bangkok.
Currently, many Italian companies are facing difficulties in finding qualified personnel to fill vacant positions. The inclusion of workers from Thailand could represent a concrete solution to support businesses and ensure operational continuity in key sectors of the national economy.
Authorities from both countries are now working to define the technical and bureaucratic details necessary to make this initiative operational. The agreement provides not only for the entry of workers but also for training programs to ensure that skills are suited to the needs of the Italian market.
This project marks an important step in the management of labor migration flows in Italy. In the coming months, the government will provide further updates on the selection methods and the expected timelines for the arrival of the first Thai workers in Italian territory.
