The first months in Romania, without guesswork
An integration program built for employees recruited from Asia.
We begin with Romanian level, shifts, roles and real team situations, then build a path that is accessible for learners and easy for HR to follow.
Start well
Map REGES dates, shifts, locations, roles, starting level and participant numbers.
Make learning accessible
Use plain language, visual examples, repetition and concrete situations, including for complete beginners.
Support daily integration
Practise communication at work, transport, healthcare, services and asking for help in Romania.
Document for HR
Bring attendance, activities, assessments and progress into one coherent record.
Practical adult onboarding
From “welcome” to confidence in Romania
The curriculum connects words to concrete moments from the first months: understanding an instruction, speaking with a shift lead, travelling to work or making a medical appointment.

Plain-language legal clarity
Employer duties under Romania’s GEO 32/2026
This page is designed for companies recruiting from Asia, but the ordinance is not applied by continent: each worker’s legal status must be checked. The course is one important part of the employer’s wider responsibilities.
At least 6 months
The program runs from each worker’s activity start date recorded in REGES-ONLINE for no less than six months.
At least 6 hours every week
This is not a program-wide average. The ordinance sets a weekly minimum that should be clearly scheduled and tracked.
Language, culture and society
Grammar alone is not enough: the program must include cultural and social integration elements for life in Romania.
Keep records for at least 5 years
Supporting documents for the employer duties must be kept for at least five years after employment ends.
Separate related duties
Understandable OSH instruction, certain notifications and confidential complaint access remain distinct employer responsibilities.
Statutory sanction listed for breach of Art. 7(1)(g)
RON 5,000–10,000for each foreign worker placed, as applicable · Art. 42(2)(a)Legal note: This is a general summary of the published act, not legal advice. Application depends on each employer and worker’s circumstances.
Visibility for HR
A clear record for every learning week
The program is designed for a simple learner experience and a coherent documentation trail for the employer.
No scattered files or last-minute spreadsheet chasing.

Frequently asked questions about GEO 32/2026 courses
01Who must provide the courses?+
Art. 7(1)(g) places the duty on the employer hiring foreign workers covered by the act. A provider supports delivery, but the company’s legal responsibility does not disappear.
02Does this apply to employees who already worked in Romania before 8 August 2026?+
Do not assume one answer fits every file. GEO 32/2026 contains transitional rules, while Art. 7(1)(g) ties the program to the activity start date recorded in REGES-ONLINE. Review the start date, hiring procedure, residence status and any employer change for each worker.
03Which employees are covered?+
GEO 32/2026 uses the definition of “foreigner” from GEO 194/2002, essentially covering people who are not Romanian, EU, EEA or Swiss citizens. Employers should check individual circumstances.
04When does the six-month period begin?+
It begins on each person’s activity start date in Romania as recorded in REGES-ONLINE—not on the date of a general supplier agreement.
05How many hours are required each week?+
Art. 7(1)(g) states at least six course hours per week for a minimum period of six months.
06What must the program contain?+
Romanian language courses that also contain cultural and social integration elements. Grammar-only content does not reflect the complete statutory wording.
07Is an ANC certificate expressly required?+
Art. 7(1)(g) does not state a general ANC-certificate requirement for every learner. It lists several delivery routes; provider status and appropriate documents should be checked for the specific situation.
08How long must supporting documents be kept?+
Art. 7(1)(i) requires supporting documents for the employer duties to be kept for at least five years after employment ends.
09Does the course replace OSH instruction?+
No. OSH instruction in a language the worker understands is a separate duty. Romanian learning can improve communication, but it does not replace it.
