Brexit: British workers haven’t been losing out to foreign labour, survey finds
Some interesting facts to slip into this debate in an era of post truth discussion. This article tells us:
British workers haven’t been losing out to foreign labour and are unlikely to see job prospects dramatically improve because of Brexit immigration cuts, according to a survey of UK companies.
While almost half of firms faced skill or labour shortages in the past 12 months, less than 10 per cent said they targeted overseas workers to fill the gap, instead investing more in recruitment and training, the British Chambers of Commerce said Wednesday.
It added that the results “challenge the myth that UK firms are ignoring local workers in favour of overseas labour.”
