The British government has decided to relax the visa program for foreign workers to overcome the problem of shortage of manpower for key industries.
According to the report of the British newspaper Financial Times, the British government is likely to make significant changes to the visa system in order to overcome the problem of shortage of manpower for important industries. Visas will be facilitated to provide manpower to key industries.
According to the report, the British government has taken this decision after warning of recession in the country.
The report states that the British Prime Minister will also relax the requirement of speaking English for some sectors so that more foreign workers can come to the UK, while under the new program foreigners from countries outside the European Union Entry into the UK will be made easier, for which the visa fee will also be reduced.
In case of relaxation of the visa policy, foreign workers on a long-term basis will not have to meet the salary requirement of 35 thousand 800 pounds to stay in the UK after 5 years. The ban on domestic workers will be lifted.
However, the report also raised fears that the British Prime Minister may face opposition from some members of her cabinet over new changes to visa policies, as Britain left the European Union in 2016 due to anti-foreigner sentiment. What was the decision?
In this regard, the British Chambers of Commerce recently conducted a survey in which 5,700 people said that more than 60 percent of companies need more manpower, but three-quarters are facing difficulties in recruitment.
It should be noted that the British government was being pressured by the industries to relax the visa system for foreign workers.
