Good Practices and Policy Requirements from the German Trade Union Federation

The German Trade Union Federation (DGB) has issued a paper dealing with the situation of undocumented migrants in Germany. In addition to naming a few examples for “good practices”, the DGB also formulates policy requirements, i.e. respecting undocumented migrants' basic social and human rights, combating moonlighting as a matter of labor, not regulatory policy, no ban on regularizations by the EU, a more liberal issuing of a stable right to stay and work to migrants with short-term permits, an end to the duty to report for public administration in the fields of health care, education and work, decriminalization of people supporting undocumented migrants, a disjunction of employment and residence rights, and deportations that are in compliance with human rights.
