Migrant workers face tougher test to work in the United Kingdom
Measures to raise the bar for foreign workers wishing to enter the United Kingdom and to give domestic workers a greater chance of applying first for United Kingdom jobs were unveiled by Home Secretar
Jacqui Smith announced three significant changes to support British workers and to be more selective about the migrants coming to the United Kingdom from outside the EEA. From 1 April the Government will
strengthen the resident labour market test for tier 2 skilled jobs so that employers must advertise jobs to resident workers through JobCentre Plus before they can bring in a worker from outside Europe
use each shortage occupation list to trigger skills reviews that focus on up-skilling resident workers for these occupations which will make the United Kingdom less dependent on migration for the future and
tighten new criteria against which highly skilled migrants seeking entry to the United Kingdom are judged by raising the qualifications and salary required for tier 1 of the PBS to a Masters degree and a minimum salary of 20,000.
