📢 Exciting news for builders, carpenters, and fishing industry workers! 🏗🎣 The Home Office has confirmed the easing of visa rules for these professions, allowing more overseas talent to contribute to the UK's economy. Roofers and plasterers have also been added to the Shortage Occupation List, making it easier for employers to fill critical vacancies. This move comes despite government attempts to reduce immigration, but it's seen as a necessary measure to address immediate labor shortages. The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) recommended adding the below new job roles to the list, further recognising the ongoing demand for skilled workers from outwith the UK: 1️⃣ Bricklayers and masons 2️⃣ Roofers, roof tilers, and slaters 3️⃣ Carpenters and joiners 4️⃣ Various other construction and building trade workers 5️⃣ Plasterers While some critics argue for self-sufficiency in the workforce through domestic training, the government acknowledges the need to fill short-term occupation numbers and still aims to support a specially trained domestic workforce.
