1 Employment of Migrant Workers - MAY 2011 Rachel Newnham & Tanya Robinson (HR)
2 Tier 1 Post Study Workers Closing in April 2012 No restrictions on work Offer of employment not required to apply Maximum of 2 years PSW holders can switch to the Tier 2 category (after 6 months employment) without need of satisfying the resident labour market test, provided there is a suitable Code of Practice Migrant worker has responsibility for application
3 Tier 1 Highly Skilled Migrants (also known as Tier 1 General) This scheme closed to new applications in April 2011 Highly skilled workers No restrictions on employment Extensions are possible (up to a maximum of 5 years) for existing holders, even though the scheme is now closed Extensions granted on a points-based system (calculator available online) Migrant worker has responsibility for application
4 Tier 2 - General Replaced old work permit scheme Applicable to graduate level jobs only, all jobs must fall within a defined Code of Practice Our approach to sponsorship is dictated by whether the applicant is: Out-of-country (i.e. doesn t have a current UK visa/residence permit) In-country (i.e. holds a current UK visa/residence permit)
5 Tier 2 - General Allocated on a points-based system (calculator available online) Rigid advertising criteria (other than named researchers) Up to 3 years (extensions are possible up to a maximum of 5 years) Individual is confined to one role and may not transfer (without the need for a new CoS/visa) Employer must sponsor the individual who then makes a visa application
6 Tier 2 - General In-country applications We have an allocation of 100 CoS that we may assign (until 05/04/2012) Subject to resident labour market test (unless named researcher) Individual must score sufficient points We allocate a certificate of sponsorship The individual applies for a biometric residence permit (BRP)
7 Tier 2 - General Out-of-country applications We apply for a restricted certificate of sponsorship from a monthly, national allocation Assessed on basis of salary, PhD, Code of Practice, resident labour market test Open to named researchers If successful, we allocate the certificate of sponsorship Individual must score sufficient points The individual applies for a UK entry clearance visa
8 Tier 2 - General Timings Researchers CoS must be issued within 12 months of the release date of the advert Academics CoS must be issued within 6 months of the release date of the advert CoS are valid for 3 months once issued - individuals must apply for a visa/brp before the CoS expires A CoS can only be issued within 3 months of the start date
9 Tier 4 - Student Visas The maximum amount of part-time work a student can do during term-time is: 20 hours per week if studying a course at or above UK degree level or a foundation degree course, and/or if they made their Tier 4 (General) application on or before 2 March 2010; or 10 hours per week if studying a course that is below UK degree level and is not a foundation degree course, and they made their Tier 4 (General) application on or after 3 March Students can work full-time during vacations, within the above limits
10 Tier 4 - Student Visas Able to switch to Tier 1 PSW or Tier 2 (with sponsorship) Specific points at which Masters and PhD students are deemed to have completed their course Upon completion of course, may work up to four months on a full-time basis, pending a new visa application (only if expiry date of existing visa allows)
11 Tier 5 Government Authorised Exchange Replaced the old Sponsored Researchers work permit scheme Allocated on a points based system Not to be used to fill job vacancies HEI s can sponsor individuals for up to 2 years Switching is not allowed in or out of the GAE category Used primarily for sponsored researchers who are: Employed by an overseas higher education institution Undertaking funded research as part of a formal research project hosted (but not necessarily funded) by a UK research institution Working (as a researcher) under the full or partial control of the institution which will directly benefit from the research [Sponsored Researchers can be funded from sources in the UK or overseas.] Employer must sponsor the individual who then makes a visa application
12 Tier 5 Creative & Sporting This category is for people coming to the UK to work or perform as entertainers or creative artists for up to 12 months Primarily used by Lakeside Arts Centre
13 Dependants May be dependant of a student, a Tier 2 holder etc. Take care not to confuse with a student visa Any restrictions on work are specified on the card or passport vignette, usually able to work without restrictions
14 Bulgarians & Romanians Do not confuse with other Accession State nationalities Bulgarians and Romanians require a Work Permit and a Worker Accession Card They are not part of the Points Based System
15 Sponsor Responsibilities Tier 2 Sponsors have specific responsibilities to report to the Home Office: Significant changes to roles and responsibilities Leavers Any unauthorised absence
16 Additional Responsibilities (All Migrant Workers) Sponsors are required to carry out certain monitoring and record keeping duties of all current migrant workers, these include: Maintaining up-to-date contact details Annual check of eligibility to work in the UK

18 Resident Labour Market Test Candidates requiring a Tier 2 visa vs. candidates from within the EEA What does the resident labour market test ask us to demonstrate? - that no suitably qualified settled worker can fill the job (post must be advertised to settled workers for 28 calendar days using the advertising methods permitted by the code of practice for the sector or job) All appointments must be made on merit, cannot screen out applicants on basis of assumptions about eligibility.
19 Resident Labour Market Test Definition - Settled worker A person who is a national of the European Economic Area or is legally settled in the UK with permission to work here. In some cases, an employer who wants to employ a person who is not a permanent resident must show that no settled worker could be found to take the job.
