Why the Skilled Worker Visa Matters for UK Business
In April 2024, the previous government placed restrictions on the Skilled Worker visa route, raising salary thresholds for overseas workers. Centuro Global called on the government to reevaluate these changes.
On 29 October 2024, we hosted an urgent, exclusive workshop in London to discuss the importance of the Skilled Worker visa route to the UK’s business ecosystem.
Visa policy is instrumental to UK growth
Our guests discussed the importance of the salary thresholds outlined in the Skilled Worker visa route for leading firms.
Drawing on insights from multinational companies, the workshop’s findings also contributed to our ‘How to Fix the UK’s Broken Visa System’ report.
