Petition Action

Work in any industry for asylum seekers with out work experience.

Petition Details

Every year, tens of thousands of people claim asylum in the UK. In the first year of their wait, asylum seekers have no legal right to work, and must survive on minimal government support. After this point, they can apply for the right to work, but available roles are heavily restricted.

Additional Information

lift the ban on employment. Asylum seekers say they want the ability to access the labour market, earn money, and use their skills. The ban also has an adverse impact on the UK Treasury. As the industrial action is going on companies can train the asylum seekers who have skills and get employed. adding people should be given the right to work and not be constrained to the Shortage Occupation List. If we use asylum seekers, we don't need to get people from other countries by providing visas.
