MORE ABOUT US

On the following pages you will find information on the complete recruitment and integration process - from the search for employees, the necessary requirements in the company and legal regulations to onboarding and integration in your company and in the Ore Mountains in general. We have divided the process into six clear categories.

If you want to get a complete overview of the entire recruitment and integration process, you can read through each section in turn. If you need specific information on a particular topic, you can jump directly to the point in the process where you need answers.

You can also take advantage of our various event formats to find out more about specific topics, expand your network and develop your skills.


“Full service under one roof - for immigrants, returnees and those who stayed here” Cordula Hartrampf-Hirschberg | Chairwoman of the Management Board Employment Agency Annaberg-Buchholz

"The Ore Mountains are a sustainably growing industrial region with many small and medium-sized companies. They shape the image to a particular degree and are naturally also dependent on skilled workers from Germany and abroad. The Welcome Center Erzgebirge pools the expertise of all network partners in the region and shows companies new ways to secure skilled workers. Welcome culture is lived here and it makes me proud that we as the Annaberg-Buchholz employment agency can make a decisive contribution to this."

“The Welcome Center Erzgebirge is an active hub and bridge builder.” André Lang | CEO Norafin Group

"As Managing Director of an internationally active company, spokesperson for the Erzgebirge Economic Advisory Board and President of the Erzgebirge Regional Chamber of the Chemnitz Chamber of Industry and Commerce, I always keep an eye on the demographic development and economic situation in our region. Every entrepreneur in the Ore Mountains should be aware that the immigration of workers is an important pillar of securing skilled labor. However, it is also a fact that the recruitment and integration of international employees should not just be the task of individual companies. It requires a well-functioning network of all those involved. The Welcome Center Erzgebirge is an active hub and bridge builder in this network."

“The Welcome Center Erzgebirge is our first point of contact for all international workers.” Jana Dost | Managing Director Chamber of Commerce and Industry Chemnitz, Ore Mountains Regional Chamber

"The Welcome Center Erzgebirge is our first point of contact for all international workers, regardless of their origin and qualifications. We know that both our member companies and immigrants receive genuinely competent support there. In addition to the pleasant and uncomplicated cooperation with "our" Welcome Center, we would like to see much more qualified immigration and openness to this in the Ore Mountains region in the future."

“The Welcome Center Erzgebirge is a guide through the jungle of authorities.” Volkmar Viehweg | Mayor Municipality of Stützengrün

"Open, warm and hospitable - that's what the Ore Mountains stand for. These are the words used by the Welcome Center Erzgebirge. The Welcome Center in Annaberg-Buchholz is the service point that supports the perfect arrival in our region. As a guide through the jungle of authorities. As a helper and mediator for formalities, finding accommodation and everyday family life. So that foreigners soon feel at home in the Ore Mountains. However, this service promise is only one side of the coin. We all have to do our bit where life has placed us. A "heartfelt" welcoming culture depends largely on all of us personally."
