Changes to the UK Skilled Worker Regime

The Immigration Conversation | Presented by Fragomen

The UK's net migration figures announced in November 2023 showed record-high numbers, with a 17.3% rise in work visas, particularly in the health and care category. In response, the government is introducing policies to bring down these figures, especially in light of the upcoming election year.

In this episode of the Immigration Conversation Podcast, Partners Louise Haycock and Charlotte Wills discuss the substantial changes to the UK migration laws that were announced on 4 December 2023, including the government's five-point plan that is likely to take effect in the spring of 2024, which aims to reduce net migration. They also share insights on what businesses can do now to prepare.
