Spain is home to over 500,000 undocumented migrants, many of whom take on jobs that are often avoided by local workers. Despite their contributions, a significant number struggle to secure employment. The Spanish government is implementing new measures aimed at better integrating these migrants into society and the workforce.
These initiatives come as many countries, including the United States and others in Europe, face similar challenges with undocumented immigration. Spain’s approach focuses on providing legal pathways and support to help migrants find stable employment and access essential services.
**Why this matters**
Integrating undocumented migrants can improve social cohesion and economic stability by reducing exploitation and informal labor. Effective policies help migrants contribute more fully to their communities, while addressing broader concerns about immigration and labor markets in host countries.
