Limburg employs many Romanian workers in fruit farming and construction. Whether you need a Romanian interpreter at Jessa Ziekenhuis, OCMW Hasselt, local courts or Limburg companies, TranslateBE connects you with a certified professional within 24 hours.
The Romanian community in Hasselt
Like Polish workers, Romanians form an important part of Limburg's agricultural seasonal workforce. The fruit-farming heartland of Haspengouw - centred on Sint-Truiden but extending across Limburg - draws thousands of Romanian seasonal workers each year to pick apples, pears, cherries and strawberries. Hasselt, as the provincial capital, is where these workers encounter Belgian institutions when they need healthcare, social assistance or legal support.
Beyond agriculture, Romanian workers are also active in Limburg's construction and logistics sectors. Some have settled permanently in Hasselt and surrounding communes, with their families enrolled in local schools. Professional Romanian interpretation serves both the seasonal agricultural population and the growing settled Romanian community across Limburg.
