Africa-Press – Mozambique. <\/strong><\/span>The Commerce, Industry and Services Association (ACIS) of Mozambique on Wednesday advocated changes in the legislation on hiring foreign labour to make the regime more flexible, and that Mozambique\u2019s diplomatic missions enjoy more autonomy in granting work visas.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe legislation and regulations inherent to the hiring and legalisation of workers of foreign nationality must be changed, so that they are adapted to current needs,\u201d ACIS says in the recommendations following from a survey it carried out and which was released yesterday.<\/p>\n

The other recommendation is to grant independence to diplomatic and consular missions in approving or refusing visa applications.<\/p>\n

ACIS also asks that additional requirements demanded of foreign workers by Mozambican public administration officials be regulated and standardised.<\/p>\n

The authorities should also standardise the procedures to be followed by diplomatic missions in processing visa applications.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe public administration must conform its computer system with the legal formalities inherent to each procedure,\u201d the document reads.<\/p>\n

ACIS understands that the Mozambican state should be held accountable for \u201cdamage incurred due to the non-observance of the law\u201d in the granting of visas, identification documents and residence permits for foreigners.<\/p>\n

The investigation found there were risks of corruption in the granting of visas and the process of hiring foreign labour, including bureaucratic dispersion, procedural requirements not provided for by law and lack of standardisation of the requirements applied by diplomatic and consular missions.<\/p>\n
