| Work Permits (UK)
will NOT grant a Work Permit to an employer who is just going
to 'sub let' their candidate to another company. |

Although it is possible to employ candidates who 'by the nature
of their position' will be required to work on client-sites
e.g. IT positions (subject to supplying sufficient evidence
of valid contracts), it is not possible to recruit candidates
when there is not as yet a position to fill (i.e.
body shopping) with the intent of contracting them out
to a third party as and when contracts become available.
Employers must be willing to take the employer on as a full
time member of staff, responsible for National Insurance,
sick pay and offering an annual salary in £'s
Contracting companies (especially in the IT industry) often
rely on geographically mobile teams of highly skilled
professionals. However, a contracting company may be regarded
as the ultimate employer where their team will be sent out on
site to various client offices with management control
being exercised by the contracting company.
Where an employee will spend all their time at the offices
of one particular client, and where the employee is under the
management control of the client company, then that
client will normally be seen as the ultimate
employer. |
