Employing Non-UK Nationals
How to recruit and employ skilled labour from overseas
Thursday, 1st December 2005
Chronic skill shortages, company growth and a widening of the EU ‘talent pool’ are among the reasons why employers are looking abroad to recruit both skilled and un-skilled workers.
Eight in 10 UK employers recruit overseas and recently 42% of employers have increased their overseas recruitment. Workplace discrimination legislation and a proposed new immigration system are likely to have a huge impact. How can organisations ensure they are prepared for the practical and legal challenges of recruiting overseas nationals, as well as being prepared to tackle the more delicate issues of discrimination and integration?
This one-day conference draws together policy makers, employment lawyers, and senior industry professionals to outline the legal framework for employers as well as offering advice and information on sourcing candidates, planning and executing effective recruitment and integration strategies to eliminate risk.
