In brief:

The government recently implemented changes to the regulations on migrant workers which will have a significant impact on British businesses. With the potentially problematic introduction of Tiers 2 and 5 of the Points Based System, the need for HR to gain a clear and comprehensive understanding of how to overcome the immigration issues and screening processes employers face, both now and in the future is more vital than ever. This timely event will also provide you with comprehensive coverage of the most up-to-date legislation surrounding EU and non-EU nationals, to ensure your vetting practices are rigorous and fair and ensure you avoid falling foul of the latest rules. Hear careful analysis of the Points Based System and identify the key challenges for HR and international resourcing specialists.

With chronic skills shortages in particular industry sectors there are many reasons why employers still look abroad to recruit both skilled and non-skilled workers. Attracting international talent, overcoming language barriers and integrating overseas nationals into UK working culture are only some of the initial hurdles organisations need to overcome confidently, and quickly, to ensure the success of international recruitment initiatives. Coinciding with the introduction of Tier 2 and Tier 5 of the Points Based System, Employing Migrant Workers: Law and Best Practice, will provide you with comprehensive advice on the latest legislative demands as well as practical analysis on planning and executing effective recruitment and integration strategies to ensure you avoid potentially costly litigation and disputes.
