With a significant portion of Northvolt's workforce being work permit holders, the impending layoffs pose a threat not only to jobs but also to the residency of many foreign nationals in Sweden.
The Migration Agency has explicitly stated that employees who lose their jobs tied to work permits have a narrow window of three months to secure new employment or risk having their permits revoked.
Digital information meetings have been held to provide affected Northvolt employees with clarity on the regulations surrounding work permits and their rights following the layoffs.
The data highlights that while 1,700 employees from third countries hold valid work permits at Northvolt, several discrepancies exist in figures reported by the engineering union.
