But, in fact, it is so that OTTO can always count on Irena and Janusz. Throughout all these 20 years, none has ever reported sick, and they were never late. And if OTTO unexpectedly needed additional people to work, they were always first to arrive.
Since 2010, Irena and Janusz have been working in the logistical centre of G-Star, a regular client of OTTO Work Force. They value fixed working times, and Irena loves her job of order picker and the fact that she constantly moves around the hall. She adds: "Physical activity and a healthy lifestyle are particularly important nowadays. I worry about the coronavirus epidemics and how it’s going to go." Fortunately, she feels reassured as everything is perfectly organised at OTTO and the company takes good care of its employees and their health, even in such challenging times like those of Covid-19.
Irena and Janusz lived at various housing locations of OTTO for almost 18 years. As a couple, they did not mind it; they had organised transport to their workplaces and good contact with managers and housemates. Two years ago, however, they wanted a bit more peace and quiet and rented a private flat in Wijk aan Zee via OnSite. "The change was shocking; at first we missed the dynamics in the park" - they explain with a smile.
However, the couple quickly got used to the new situation and now they appreciate life in the Netherlands even more. A country where - they add - "people live at ease and don't worry about anything, unlike in Poland." What will the future bring? - they do not know. They appreciate what they have and do not want to change anything. The sea air is also good for them. For OTTO Work Force, Irena and Janusz have become family.

Society is generally critical of migration, while migration is inevitable and a certain degree of labor migration is necessary for the Dutch labor market. This negative sentiment is reinforced by the problems that exist in the field of labor migration. Rightly so that this was a major theme during the elections, rightly so that this is an important file during the formation. But it's not good that we, as
