Meno 30% di immigrati lavoratori nel 2023-2024
Il numero di nuovi immigrati per manodopera è diminuito drasticamente, soprattutto dalla Polonia, che in passato inviava la maggior parte dei lavoratori. Il miglioramento delle economie e la debolezza della corona norvegese rendono il lavoro in Norvegia meno attraente dal punto di vista finanziario. Molti di coloro che sono già in Norvegia svolgono lavori fisicamente impegnativi e poco retribuiti con poche opportunità di avanzamento, e alcuni scelgono di tornare a casa. I ricercatori sottolineano inoltre che avere un lavoro non garantisce l’integrazione, poiché molti immigrati ricevono scarsa formazione o sostegno linguistico.
Gli immigrati per lavoro provenienti dall’UE hanno avuto un accesso molto limitato alle misure di integrazione che ricevono i rifugiati e gli altri immigrati. Non hanno seguito alcun programma di introduzione in Norvegia. Non hanno avuto diritto alla formazione in lingua norvegese.
– Gli immigrati lavoratori dell’UE sono stati chiamati “gli immigrati che avrebbero dovuto arrangiarsi da soli”.
Lo noti? Lo faccio assolutamente e penso che sia davvero un peccato.

They came for the money.
Once the money is not so good, they leave.
What do you want me to say?
I dont care anymore about foreign labor, than they do about me.
As you say, their influx drove wages for low skill jobs down the drain + worse working conditions, like hotel maids having to do 9 rooms an hour, compared to 5 in 1999.*
*example is pure illustration.
Hopefully less demand for those jobs can improve labour conditions for those still in Norway working, at least
What kind of integration do EU workers need?
It’s not like the Norwegians are trying very hard to keep them. As a foreign worker in Norway I’ve noticed that there is a parallel society that emerges.
For one, unless you’re refugee or the spouse of a Norwegian you have to pay for your own required language classes. I think if you want people to integrate and stay, you should offer them for free like Sweden does.
Another thing I realized at work is that a lot of my Norwegian colleagues are comparatively lazy. Not saying that they are lazy in a negative way, we’d probably call it work life balance. But I would say they were lazy in a planned way. I can’t say this is all Norwegians, of course. But I did notice that they spent very little effort hammering out a real plan and sticking to it, but spent a lot of time discussing developing a plan.
Another thing I noticed, the foreign workers do the majority of the work but have very little say in how things are done. If I take initiative and start working on a plan or ask the manager to set down some structure, I’m often met with “that’s not how we do it here.” In my mind so many of the mistakes that are made week to week would be solved by just saying “no” to some people and laying down a plan for success. Yet, they would prefer to react all the time. It was exhausting.
The company culture is really Norwegian too, which I accept. But again, they recruited me here knowing I’m a foreigner and I accept my role in learning how things work here. However, Norwegians do not make it easy at all. There is a real safeguard on the culture and similarly an unreasonably high expectation that foreigners should just “get it.”
I don’t think my Norwegian colleagues were mean or deliberately confusing. I honestly think they just don’t know how to deal with people from outside of Norway very well. Keep in mind I live in Stavanger, and yes you’d think they’d have a little more exposure to other cultures but this is the biggest small town I’ve ever lived in.
In the end it felt like, “you’re the foreigner, do all the work and don’t ask questions. Yes, you have 25 days off a year isn’t that great. No I’m not going to actually plan our work. Yes I am going to Siradal to ski at my cabin. You don’t know how it works here because you’re not from here. No, I’m not going to explain it to you.”
Immigration is hard. I’m from outside the EU and came here 3.5 years ago for a master’s degree. I brought my husband and young son with me. Despite getting a job offer that should have qualified as «skilled», earning more than the minimum amount needed to support ourselves becoming fluent in Norwegian and having my son fully integrated, we were denied residency by UDI and have to move back.
It sucks to read about how Norway needs more labor, that the job I had struggles to find qualified workers and then still get rejected in the end.
I still love Norway, but holy hell is it hard to get in.
then tell someone to hire me >:[ been applying to every Network and System admin job i can find for almost a year now.
I’ve been here 12 years. My salary in NOK has nearly doubled since I started. Converted to USD, it has been moving between -25% and +5%. Since we import pretty much everything, it means that we suffered a 100% inflation in 12 years.
Salaries in other places don’t look so bad anymore, and work culture isn’t to everyone’s taste, so immigration slows down.
Don’t worry. Our current gov’t coalition is going to make sure to make up for that with refugees from middle eastern countries.
