In this episode, we examine the effects of Sweden's recent policy raising wage requirements for work permits, which has led to a significant drop in approvals, especially in low-wage fields like cleaning and restaurant services. With the new threshold set at 28,500 SEK, many applicants are now facing rejection. We explore the government’s intent behind this change, the broader implications for Sweden’s labor market, and how it impacts both employers and foreign workers.
