Opposition Mi Hazánk condemned a company in south-east Hungary for employing thirty Indonesian workers. Head of the party’s labour cabinet János Lantos said that Continental’s plant in Makó had taken on Indonesians while neglecting applications by Hungarians, including former employees. A legal amendment by the government this summer has “opened the Hungarian labour market wide open to third-world countries”, enabling job-seekers without a work permit to come to Hungary, he added. Lantos also condemned Continental for offering different conditions of employment to the Indonesians who get their accommodation, travel fees and utility bills paid by the company. “Hungarian workers should always be given preference under all circumstances simply because Hungary is the home of Hungarian workers,” he said.
