Already at the congress last autumn, S decided to reintroduce the labor market test.
An investigator is now tasked with, among other things, developing proposals on how the need for labor immigration can be controlled and tested against the needs of the labor market.
The labor market test is that a work permit should only be granted in occupations where there is a shortage of labor.
V and SD are behind the order while M, C, L, KD and MP oppose it.
Serious consequences
The trial has existed before but was removed in 2008 by the then bourgeois government.
According to Ygeman, this, together with other deregulations, has led to serious consequences.
- This has meant that the unemployed and people who have been granted asylum in Sweden have found it more difficult to get to work, we can never accept that.
We must have order and order in the Swedish labor market and we must crack down on organized crime.
Sweden should never compete with low wages and poor working conditions, he says.
"Cynical exploitation"
Johan Lindholm, chairman of the Swedish Construction Workers' Union, who also participated in the press conference, welcomes the investigation.
Today's system is not sustainable, according to him.
- Serious companies are outcompeted by reputable ones.
It is basically a matter of reducing wage costs at all costs and cynically exploiting foreign labor with the help of naive regulations.
Requirements for labor market testing can only be introduced for labor immigrants from countries outside the EU and the Nordic countries.
