UK Govt responds to Intra Company Transfer policy failure claims

08 December 2009 The UK govt has announced that from the beginning of next year workers in this category will have to posses 12 months experience instead of the current 6 months and the intra company transfer will be closed to permanent residency/settlement in the United Kingdom.

With the intra company transfer employers can fill positions in the UK by applying for existing foreign employers to join the UK based operations. There have been some claims that this facilitates jobs in the IT and various other industries to be taken up by workers and getting paid less than resident workers.
