With employment and immigration laws ever-evolving in the United Kingdom, the latest legal developments can have a significant impact on your business and the employees who work for you.
For HR professionals, keeping abreast of policies and processes can be challenging. Having access to employment law and expert business immigration solicitors can provide support and guidance to HR teams, streamline compliance, mitigate risks, and ensure smooth operations within the evolving legal landscape.
How business immigration solicitors can support your organisation
Unlike standard consultants or advisers, a business immigration solicitor is a qualified legal professional who can offer comprehensive support throughout the employment process.
Leaning on an expert business immigration solicitor for support with complex application processes can empower HR teams to spend less time trying to navigate these processes and more time driving meaningful change in their organisations.
When it comes to recruitment, you must confirm anyone taking up employment with your business has the right to work in the UK. If you intend to recruit a foreign worker, an immigration consultant or specialist solicitor can support you in ensuring compliance with legal obligations when employing workers from abroad.
When should you consider working with an HR immigration specialist?
When faced with the complexities of the UK immigration process, organisations should consider working with an outsourced specialist employment law solicitor. This partnership extends beyond mere compliance, aiming to ensure that your organisation’s requirements, plans and objectives in relation to UK law are met.
A specialist can assist with a full range of complex legal matters, from preparing worker Visa and sponsor licence applications, to providing advice on overseas visitors, setting up business in the UK and compliance with Right to Work checks.
An experienced business immigration solicitor can also provide guidance on how to manage complicated dismissal processes where employees do not have the right to work in the UK.
