How will Brexit and new immigration policies affect social care?


National Institute of Economic and Social Research, 2 Dean Trench St, Smith Square, London , SW1P 3HE

16:00pm - 18:00pm


The Government’s plans for post-Brexit immigration policy are currently being drawn up. The White Paper was published in December and includes proposals to place tight limits on ‘lower skilled’ immigration. This is likely to present special challenges for the social care sector, parts of which employ significant numbers of migrants from the EU and beyond. At the same time, employers consistently say they would like to attract more British applicants, and the new post –Brexit immigration policy is likely to make this more urgent.

The event is intended for employers and representative organisations in social care as well as policy makers from across Whitehall. You’ll hear from a series of industry experts who will give an overview of the immigration policy proposals and their implications. You’ll also have the chance to take part in a round-table discussion where you’ll be able to consider, and feedback on, what the proposals could mean for your business and the sector more widely.

The event is free to attend but places are limited, therefore to ensure attendance please RSVP as soon as possible to Luca Pieri:
