New agreement between Italy and Thailand: 30,000 workers per year on the way
The Italian government has announced a major international agreement to facilitate the entry of foreign workers into the country. According to the new provisions, Italy will open its doors to the arrival of 30,000 workers from Thailand each year.
This initiative aims to address labor shortages in sectors strategic to the national economy. Thai workers will be employed primarily in three fundamental areas: agriculture, the healthcare sector, and the service industry.
The decision responds to the growing need for both skilled and unskilled personnel, requested by Italian companies to support production and ensure the provision of essential services. The integration of this new workforce is expected to help stabilize the labor market in various productive sectors.
The competent authorities are now defining the technical details to manage migration flows in an orderly and secure manner. The goal is to ensure that the integration of workers takes place in compliance with current regulations and the needs of Italian businesses.
This agreement represents a significant step in bilateral relations between Italy and Thailand. It is expected that the arrival of the first workers will begin in the coming months, marking an important shift in the country's employment policies.
