""It’s unreasonable for work permit holders to be given just three months to find a new job. Extending it to six months is more humane and practical.""
""The new proposal aligns with EU directives and reflects a growing recognition of the logistical challenges faced by employees in transition after job loss.""
Sweden's government has proposed increasing the job search period for work permit holders from three to six months, aligning with a recent EU directive. Currently, those who lose their jobs must leave if they don't secure new employment within three months post-notice. The proposal will apply only to individuals with work permits lasting at least two years and requires proof of financial self-support for at least three months. This change is welcomed by critics of the current law, emphasizing the challenges of finding new employment in a short timeframe, especially compared to neighboring countries.
