Work permit salary thresholds: Does exempted job list mean anything?

This week's episode of Sweden in Focus Extra for Membership+ subscribers features an interview with Hanna Geurtsen, the Migration Agency official responsible for overseeing a new list of jobs which could be exempted from a future salary threshold for work permits. She tells us how and why the list was put together, what it consists of, and what practical impact, if any, it is likely to have.


Membership+ subscribers can listen to the interview in the latest episode of Sweden in Focus Extra.
