04th Oct 2009 - Visa’s hit the news again
SO Baroness Scotland falls foul of immigration law and is fined £5000.00. Her cleaner did not have the correct visa therefore she was not legitimately allowed to work in the UK. People often criticize recruitment consultancies with good reason; however such checks are standard practice for agencies in the UK along with checking both professional and educational documentation and taking a reference…..
Moral of the story Baroness Scotland- Use an agency and don’t get fined £5000 as the responsibility is all ours under the 2003 Agencies Act to ensure all these BASIC checks are in place
