How Kenyans can get jobs in Germany under new Ruto pact

Whether it’s minimum wage, working hours regulations, or health insurance, every worker in Germany is equal; not just German citizens.

Representatives from both the German and Kenyan governments presented initial measures and details of the new bilateral labour migration agreement signed just two weeks ago by President William Ruto and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz in Berlin.

“We expect 500 to 600 visa applications for Germany in the coming months,” remarked Labour Cabinet Secretary Alfred Mutua during the opening ceremony. “There are already 495 concrete job offers on the table, ranging from mechanics and cooks to receptionists and nurses.”

However, adequate language skills are a prerequisite. The Goethe Institute and the AG German Institute, two of the leading German language schools in Kenya are already experiencing a surge in enrollment, prompting discussions with universities to increase the number of German teachers in the country, as announced by the German Ambassador, Sebastian Groth.
