At the latest cabinet meeting of the government, Germany's ruling Social Democrats and the Union Party (CSU and CDU) agreed to relax the employment restrictions of foreign graduates and professionals in Germany, but disagreed on some details。The CDU's Minister of Education and research, Dr Chavan.AnnetteSchavan proposed that the annual salary of foreign professionals should be capped from the original 8.50,000 euros down to 60,000 euros。The Social Democratic Party believes that the training of the unemployed should be increased to solve the structural unemployment problem in the German labor market。

The coming months are expected to lower the barriers to foreign talent in certain industries, particularly electronics and machinery manufacturing。In addition, the environment for foreign students who have studied in Germany to find jobs will become more relaxed than before。A spokesman for the federal government said that accepting foreign immigrants was necessary for Germany's Labour market in the long term。

According to the latest data released by the German Federal Statistics Office, the number of Chinese passport holders in Germany is 7.80,000 people, mainly studying abroad, working and family reunion。Among them, there are nearly 30,000 international students, and 1 in 10 Chinese who have obtained limited-period work visas to study in Germany.The number of Chinese nationals who have been granted long-term residence is 8,400。Chinese people working in Germany mainly include employees of Chinese enterprises in Germany, overseas students who began to work in German enterprises after studying abroad, independent professionals, chefs in Chinese restaurants, and Chinese construction workers。According to incomplete statistics, there are about 100,000 overseas Chinese with German or European nationality in Germany, of which the Chinese food industry is the largest industry, and more than 70% of overseas Chinese are engaged in the Chinese food industry in Germany。

Under the financial crisis, the unemployment rate in Germany has gradually risen, and the employment of Chinese people in Germany has also been affected。Although the German labor policy does not explicitly exclude Chinese or other foreigners, the impact of Chinese employment in Germany is greater than that of local people, especially Chinese restaurant chefs and international students。

Unemployment in Germany has risen for the fifth month in a row since November。Germany's unemployment rate rose to 8. 8 percent in March, the Federal Labor Office said on March 31.1 percent, bringing total unemployment to 3.4 million。Unemployment in Germany is expected to rise by 430,000 this year, bringing the total to 3.7 million。In the wake of the financial crisis, German companies have either slashed staff or slashed hiring plans。According to the German labor law for foreigners, foreigners can only be hired if the work is really not done by Germans。Therefore, the employment of Chinese people in Germany has been significantly affected。Faced with increasingly scarce jobs, Chinese workers and students are clearly at a disadvantage。

According to practitioners in the German Chinese restaurant industry, in the past two years, the German authorities have implemented stricter regulations to restrict Chinese chefs to work in Germany, resulting in a shortage of Chinese restaurant chefs in Germany, which has seriously affected the operation of Chinese restaurants。In late 2007 the German Labour Office introduced a tough new rule: all Chinese chefs applying to work in Germany must have a vocational school diploma as part of their submission。Under the new rules, only a very small number of applicants will be able to obtain a visa to work in Germany。Chinese food practitioners in Germany are not happy with the new policy implemented by the German authorities。They believe that the implementation of this policy has prevented a large number of chefs from coming to work in Germany, which is an even worse situation for the already depressed Chinese food industry。

In response to the above situation, some Chinese restaurant enterprises have united to set up the Chinese restaurant industry trade union, hoping to join the German restaurant and hotel industry Association, and through this association, to the German Labor Office to make legal appeals。
