π Increase to Salary Thresholds for Work Visas π Is your company sponsoring work visas for foreign employees? Stay informed about the latest changes in salary thresholds to ensure compliance and effective planning. πΌ Starting from 4 April, the minimum salary requirement for work visas will rise from Β£26,200 to Β£38,700. While this will be the general minimum, certain jobs will require higher salaries. What do you need to know? β‘οΈ Protecting Vital Sectors: Workers on the Health and Care Visa route, as well as those in national payscale occupations like teaching, will be exempt from this increase. This safeguards sectors such as care, the NHS, and education. β‘οΈ Regional Impact: The impact is expected to be less significant in London, where salaries are often higher - though some sectors will still struggle. β‘οΈ Planning Ahead: Employers and HR professionals need to plan ahead to navigate these changes effectively, ensuring compliance while managing impacts on recruitment and retention strategies.
