"The issue of labour migration within the EU has long been perceived as a potential problem for imbalances at national level in terms of shortages of labour supply. However, labour migration has registered a beneficial effect for the EU as a whole, often having the merit of restoring the balance between labour demand and supply. The notion of ‘free movement of workers’ has been present in the Treaties as a guarantee for the completion of the single market, and for the strengthening of a true European identity, but Member States have been granted the right to maintain provisional barriers for transitional periods with regard to opening the labour market for new Member States. Free movement of workers is a right that citizens have, and by exercising this right, there are no negative effects registered on the labour markets. The Member States, together with their local and regional authorities, therefore play a crucial role. They need to work together to assure the elimination of possible direct or indirect barriers, especially the ones related to discriminatory behaviour based on nationality, refusal to grant rights to family members, social security schemes and other barriers that can prevent or provide disincentives for workers to move freely in search of a job."@en1
