Germany's hospitals rely on immigrant nurses that unions ignore

Original: Les infirmières immigrées sont le pilier des hôpitaux allemands, mais les syndicats les ignorent Cet article fait partie

A report from a special series on today's challenges in the world of work, developed from a September 2025 workshop at the University of Kassel, argues that immigrant nurses form the backbone of German hospitals yet are largely overlooked by trade unions. It highlights a gap between migrant health workers' essential role in the health system and the lack of union representation and advocacy they receive.
