Germany needs skilled immigrants because of some key factors. The Agency revealed there’s an aging population and low birth rates which have resulted in outrageous shortages in the working population. What this simply means is that people are not dying and people are not giving birth enough to replace the old age population who are grown and are on retirement or will soon retire. In other words, Germany’s life expectancy ratio is extremely good.
The nation faces labour shortages unless it starts recruiting more skilled immigrants to replace old folks retiring from Germany’s aging workforce. Federal Labour Agency Chairman, Detlef Scheele told the Suddeutsche Zeitung (SZ) newspaper on Tuesday, cited in an article published by DW news.
