The British Government has restricted foreign workers from filling more than 100 job categories as major immigration reforms aimed at reducing net migration.
In a statement posted on X Saturday morning, the Home Office said the decision was to create more opportunities for local citizens.
This policy marks the latest immigration clampdown under Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, who assumed office on July 5, 2024.
“Cutting net migration means getting the fundamentals right.
“More than 100 occupations are no longer eligible for overseas recruitment – opening up more jobs for British workers. A fairer, skills-focused system is now taking shape,” the Home Office stated.
The Office has not yet published the full list of restricted occupations.
