Recommendation
We welcome the addition of care workers, care assistants and domiciliary care workers to the Shortage Occupation List, acknowledging that these roles are in short supply within the UK resident labour market. The Government should monitor the impact of adding care workers to the Shortage Occupation List on vacancies and be prepared to extend the visa period beyond 12 months, to lower the salary threshold, or both. (Paragraph 119) Unpaid carers
