Business Immigration Webinar: The retail sector is facing unprecedented challenges in securing talent
Wednesday 15 May
9:30am - 10:30am
Via Zoom
Around a fifth of the UK’s employed workforce in 2022 were migrants (Migration Observatory, 26 Jan 2024). The retail sector is one of the largest employers of migrant workers and therefore one of the sectors most at risk of receiving civil penalties for illegal working.
On 13th February 2024, fines for employing an illegal worker tripled to up to £60,000 per employee from £20,000. It is therefore vital to ensure that you have robust systems in place and that your HR procedures and systems are fully compliant to avoid a crippling fine.
In this webinar, our specialist immigration practitioner Shradha Virji (Managing Associate) will share her expertise and insights on how to navigate the challenges of right to work legislation. Topics covered in this event include:
- The latest developments and changes in right to work legislation and how they affect your business
- How to conduct right to work checks and maintain accurate records
- How to identify valid documentation and avoid common pitfalls
- What to do in tricky right to work situations
