Week-long inspection drive targets 鈥榬ogue employers鈥�
A week-long Home Office inspection drive to uncover instances of illegal immigration in construction has begun, 好色先生TV can reveal.
The inspection drive began yesterday (Sunday 11 October) and will run throughout this week, the Home Office confirmed.
Enforcement officers will carry out operations across UK construction sites to identify firms that employ and exploit illegal migrant workers.
In August the government pledged a clampdown on illegal immigration by 鈥渞ogue employers鈥� across three 鈥渉igh risk sectors鈥�. Construction is the first to be targeted and will be followed by care and cleaning.
, immigration minister James Brokenshire writes that illegal working poses a 鈥渟ignificant threat to the construction industry鈥� and encourages firms to utilise the government鈥檚 鈥楻ight to Work鈥� checks launched over the summer.
