What do employers need to know about the EU Settlement Scheme?
Since March, businesses across the UK have been focused on surviving through lockdowns and furlough schemes, now it is time to turn their attention to some important issues that may have been missed.
Following Brexit, there are new rules coming into place for businesses from 1st January 2021, which means that time is running out for the UK transition and businesses need to start acting now.
Aside from the import and export of goods from and to EU countries, businesses in the UK need to start thinking about their employees who may be impacted by the new EU Settlement Scheme. “The European Union Settlement Scheme is a scheme launched in 2019 by the Home Office to process the registration of EU citizens resident in the United Kingdom prior to its departure from the European Union.”
