Stamford restaurant faces £50,000 fine!
Why are some employers so stupid - if you break UK immigration laws you risk losing your business and face very heavy fines and even imprisonment:
This has been published by the Border Agency today.
It states “Five illegal workers have been caught in Stamford by our officers.
Acting on intelligence, our officers visited the Voujon Indian restaurant in Broad Street at 1805 on 10 June 2010. The officers sealed all exits before interviewing the workers and checking their immigration status.”
Rachel Challis, UK Border Agency's Boston-based team, said:
'We will continue to pull the plug on the illegal jobs which lure illegal immigrants to come to the UK. Anyone in Lincolnshire who takes on a foreign national without permission to work is breaking the law and undermining law-abiding businesses.
'Rogue employers should be warned that they face heavy fines and could end up in jail.”
UK immigration can become complex but as Tim McMahon, who is a Cambridge based UK government registered immigration consultant, says absolutely that UK immigration rules are not to be messed with.
The UK government have a clearly set of employment rules that state what and when employers can employ workers from countries outside of the European Union.
We have helped many businesses with very varied backgrounds secure the necessary work visas for overseas staff. These are qualified specialists that the business needs. Because these individuals are rare and in demand it is essential to manage the process by the regulations to the benefit of all involved.
An important point is that the UK Borders & Immigration officers do publicise those employers who break the law and that will be bad for business at any time – even worse in hard economic times with many job shortages and customers definitely won’t like it.
