Czech market needs workforce from abroad - survey

Although the public in Czechia sees migration in the last decade primarily as a threat, the Czech market needs foreign workforce and attracts it, according to a newly released survey by experts from Mendel University in Brno and the Metropolitan University in Prague. Czechia does not have a comprehensive and long-term strategy for immigration policy that would be based on an analysis of international pledges and needs of the labour market and would support the competitiveness of Czechia in making it an attractive place for work and life in a broader European context, the expert study on risks and challenges of the Czech migration policy in context of the "migrant crisis" writes.
