EUbusiness - Half million Poles to take summer jobs in other EU countries
21/06/2005
Around 500,000 Polish workers will take seasonal jobs in other European Union member states this summer, mainly in Britain and Germany, deputy Polish labour minister Jacek Mecina said Tuesday.
Most will work in catering, construction or farming, Mecina was cited by Poland's PAP news agency as saying.
Last year around 300,000 Poles took seasonal jobs in Germany and 100,000 in Britain, he said.
When the EU expanded by 10 members on May 1 last year, most older EU member states opted to keep their job markets closed to workers from the new members including Poland, during a transition period of at least two years, extendable to five or seven years.
The only exceptions were Britain, Ireland and Sweden.
Seasonal workers from new EU member states are allowed into Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain on a quota basis.
