We are excited to share our latest immigration guide, which we have put together to help you prepare for the new system coming into force in 2021.
The UK immigration system is fundamentally changing and these reforms will force many employers to rethink how they staff their business, what it will cost and where the work should be done.
We want to help with those decisions and have produced this benchmarking paper, after surveying more than 500 UK employers. We focus on those impacted by the end of free movement and the report outlines how employers are helping Europeans who will be in the UK before free movement ends. It also examines how ready employers are for a new immigration system and what they are doing to prepare.
We appreciate there is a lot to do in order to prepare your workforce, both current and future, for 2021. It has been extremely difficult to focus on strategic planning for a post Brexit-era while managing your workforce through the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope you find the guide useful when you think beyond the pandemic to the new immigration regime.
