UZ Trade House Germany and Hanseatic Connect to Open European Market for 100,000 Specialists
Economy
The systematic diversification of foreign labor markets and the establishment of protected legal mechanisms for integrating domestic human capital into high-tech sectors of the European economy have formed the foundation for a new phase of strategic partnership between Uzbekistan and the Federal Republic of Germany. Within the framework of the state visit of the Federal President of Germany, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, to Uzbekistan, a milestone declaration of intent (Absichtserklärung) on strategic cooperation was executed between UZ Trade House Germany and Hanseatic Connect. The document, signed by Managing Directors Johnny Bakos and Thomas Avisus, establishes a long-term framework for the targeted recruitment, professional qualification, and subsequent formal employment of up to 100,000 specialists and workers from Uzbekistan across Germany and other European markets.
In alignment with the approved division of responsibilities, UZ Trade House Germany assumes the function of a strategic coordinator on the local level, ensuring the deployment of a communication network with government institutions, relevant ministries, agencies, and sector-specific industrial associations of the republic. Concurrently, Hanseatic Connect, an international staffing agency headquartered in Hamburg, operates as the project’s operational partner. The company oversees the entire administrative life cycle of the processes: spanning from selective recruitment, the conceptual design of language programs, and vocational qualification in the home country to the legal facilitation of visa procedures, the recognition (nostrification) of credentials, and the final social and labor integration of specialists into the new working environment, without assuming the status of a direct employer.
The scope of the treaty encompasses a broad range of industries—stretching from agriculture, logistics, construction, and transport to manufacturing, healthcare, technical crafts, and the maritime sector. During the pilot phase, the parties will concentrate their operations on segments suffering from a critical personnel deficit within the EU, specifically the hospitality sector and healthcare assistance (Pflege). High credibility and a solid foundation are lent to the project by the fact that Hanseatic Connect is a subsidiary of the Schulte Group, a German family shipping conglomerate with roughly 140 years of history. The holding possesses global infrastructure, a network of corporate offices spanning over 30 global locations, and manages a fleet of more than 650 vessels through its Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement (BSM) division. The German partner's access to its own training centers worldwide guarantees the adaptation of Uzbek specialists to meet the rigid demands of European Union employers.
