Annex I – Recommendation 8 – indent 1
- Directive 2009/52/EC contains several tools that can be used to support irregularly staying third-country nationals working within the Union. The fact that it only covers irregularly staying third- country wshould be amended with the ambition to put in place additional EU-wide measures to combat pull factors created by employers who employ illegal labour migrants. In orkders is, however, a substantial flaw. While regularly staying third- country workers enjoy a higher level of protection, mainly by virtue of to develop, and to gain support for, the Union's common policy on legal labour migration, efforts must be made to furtheir legal right to stay within the Union, as well as through other means, they too can be exploited and remain more vulnerable than Union citizens. Consequently, the European Parliament sees a need to amend Directive 2009/52/EC to make it applicable to all third-country nationals working in the Unioncurb illegal labour migration. Any new EU measures against employers' abuse of legal labour migrants should be addressed separately, and not within the framework of directive 2009/52/EC.
