Immigration Solutions for HR

Dealing with business-related immigration issues is tricky and time-consuming for UK HR professionals, and getting things right is critical for reputational and workforce planning reasons. Post-pandemic, the Home Office is stepping up its sponsor compliance and illegal working enforcement activities, so it is more important than ever to ensure your business is on top of its obligations.

To assist you, we have developed a suite of toolkits, training and onsite and virtual support specifically for HR professionals.

Our Immigration Solutions for HR cover two key areas that HR professionals and their businesses most commonly need in-depth support on – Sponsor Compliance and Right to Work.

Our toolkits offer a handy reference resource written in clear language and offering practical tips on how to manage required processes.

Our training is delivered by expert immigration lawyers in a variety of formats, including face-to-face, e-learning and webinar. We can tailor the training to ensure it is relevant to your business and answers any questions you may have.

For more detailed guidance, or when you need reassurance that your existing immigration compliance processes are fit for purpose, we can provide onsite and virtual support services. Depending on your business’s requirements, these may focus on meeting the needs of HR professionals, line managers or both.
