Uzbekistan continues to expand international cooperation in the field of labor migration. After Germany and France, Austria has also expressed its readiness to sign an agreement on labor migration with Uzbekistan. In addition, opportunities for Uzbek medical specialists to work in the USA and Qatar are expanding.

Work opportunities in Austria

According to the Migration Agency, representatives of the Agency under the Cabinet of Ministers, the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and the Interior are holding negotiations with official Austrian agencies.

The meetings discussed the development of labor migration, the placement of Uzbek citizens in high-paying jobs in Austria, as well as the development of an intergovernmental agreement between the two countries.

In addition, the Austrian Federal Chamber of Commerce and Industry will open a representative office in Uzbekistan in April of this year. As part of this, it is planned to organize a "Labor Forum" with the participation of large employers from Austria.

Uzbek nurses can work in the US and Qatar

Another important news is that Uzbek medical specialists can be sent to work in the US and Qatar.

The US has a demand for more than 1 million nurses by 2030. In this regard, an agreement was signed between the Migration Agency and New Future Success Academy. In this process, training programs will be organized, and candidates will receive the necessary knowledge and skills to work in the US.

Qatar is also inviting Uzbek nurses to work. So far, there are 10 vacancies, the salary is $ 2,750 per month. The work will be carried out in three shifts, 48 ​​hours a week, 6 days a week. Candidates must be 18-50 years old, have 2 years of work experience in the medical field, and have excellent English.

The role of migrants in the economy of Uzbekistan

In 2018-2023, 16 percent of the population's income in Uzbekistan fell to labor migrants. Every year, compatriots working abroad send 12-15 billion dollars to Uzbekistan, which is an important source of income for the country's economy.

Uzbekistan is expanding cooperation in the field of labor migration with countries such as Germany, France, Austria, the USA and Qatar. The signing of an agreement with Austria and the possibility of working in the USA and Qatar will open new opportunities for our citizens. This will have a positive effect not only for our compatriots, but also for the economy of Uzbekistan. Follow “Zamin” news on “Telegram”
