Abstract
European policymakers and citizens alike support the idea of mobility across borders in the EU. But concerns about the possible negative effects of labour inflow from other Member States have led to restrictions on the free movement of workers at each successive EU enlargement, with the exception of the 1995 accession of Austria, Finland and Sweden. This fact sheet forms part of the Eurofound resource pack on ‘East, west, home is best? Migration in Europe’. The pack explores the issue of migration, providing insights from the perspective of Member States, cities and workers.
