"Madam President, it is not acceptable that Bulgarian and Romanian citizens continue to be discriminated against by certain European Union Member States in their access to the respective labour markets and, accordingly, we insist that it is insufficient to affirm that free movement of workers is a fundamental right of the European Union. It is necessary to guarantee that all are assured equal rights, that the directives of the European Union and economic policies create the jobs required for all, and that they guarantee the necessary socio-economic mechanisms to avoid any kind of social dumping.
Accordingly, it is time to end restrictions on access to the respective labour markets for Romanian and Bulgarian citizens given that, in many cases, these restrictions serve as cover for forced self-employment, undeclared work and irregular employment, which puts the rights of all workers at risk, including workers of the countries hosting the Bulgarian and Romanian citizens.
We know that the promotion of neoliberal policies is aggravating unemployment, precarious and badly paid work, and undeclared work, and hence social dumping is proliferating, the exploitation of workers is intensifying and a cultural melting pot is created that is conducive to xenophobia and racism. That is why we insist on the need for progressive economic and social policies and also on a committed fight against all discrimination in defence of equal rights and opportunities and with respect for the dignity of workers."@en1
