Employing migrant workers under the new UK immigration laws

As the trend towards globalisation and mobility continues, and with the widening of the European Union, immigration and visa requirements are increasingly playing a large role in the recruitment process and in business considerations. Time frames are often important in recruiting personnel and those involved in recruitment now face additional pressures introduced by the radical overhaul of the UK's immigration laws which took place in 2008 and continue into 2009. The most significant changes will affect employers who wish to sponsor migrant workers to work in the UK.
