What is the Qualified Employee Program?
The Qualified Employee Program is a government initiative of the Czech Republic aimed at facilitating the employment of qualified workers from selected non-European Union countries. This program responds to the growing labor shortage in key sectors such as industry, construction, agriculture, and services. The Qualified Employee Program provides a faster and more efficient pathway for the recruitment of foreign workers into the Czech labor market.
How does the Qualified Employee Program work?
The Qualified Employee Program allows for expedited processing of applications for employment cards for qualified workers from selected countries, such as Ukraine, the Philippines, India, Moldova, and others. Employers facing labor shortages can more quickly integrate foreign workers into their operations thanks to this program. The application process is less administratively burdensome and reduces the waiting time for the arrival of workers.
Conditions for participation in the program
To participate in the Qualified Employee Program, employers must meet certain conditions. Key requirements include demonstrating a proven need for workers in a specific sector. Employers must provide evidence that they cannot find a sufficient number of workers in the Czech labor market. The program also offers employers priority deadlines for submitting applications for employment cards, which speeds up the entire process and facilitates the integration of workers into operations.
Benefits of the Qualified Employee Program for Czech employers
The Qualified Employee Program offers Czech employers several advantages. Among the most significant benefits are the accelerated process of hiring foreign workers and reduced administrative burdens. Through this program, companies can more quickly meet their needs for qualified workers, ensuring the smooth operation of their businesses. The program is designed to support the Czech economy and ensure an adequate supply of workers in key sectors.
The Qualified Employee Program is a crucial tool that helps Czech companies overcome the shortage of qualified labor. By streamlining the employment process for foreign workers, it contributes to the development of the Czech economy and allows employers easier access to the workers they need.
