STOP PRESS

GRB Ltd have gained the work permit approval for a Registered General Nurse since they have been taken off the shortage occupation list in August 2006.

Since the 14th August 2006 employers were required to go through the resident labour market test which involves submitting evidence that post have been advertised, with full details of those who applied and were interviewed, and why resident nationals were not considered suitable. Only when the resident labour test has been satisfied will consideration be given to issuing a work permit.

We have now satisfied this test with a few of our clients and managed to gain work permits for overseas nurses who wish to work in the UK after their adaptation program has been completed.
