Foreign chefs and nannies studying in the UK will not be allowed to change employers in the UK.

According to the British "China-UK Times" report, from April 6, 20 12, the application procedures and the duration of stay in the UK for Tier 5 temporary work visas will change. In Britain, foreign chefs, nannies and other private employees are not allowed to change employers. Foreigners who come to Britain through internship and work experience programs cannot stay for more than one year.

Non-British private employees employed by diplomats can still apply for Tier5 temporary work visas, but they need confirmation letters from foreign missions and the names of diplomats for whom the employees work. Private employees can only serve diplomats in the confirmation letter, and cannot change their employers and leave the UK later than their employers. Such private employees can't stay in Britain for more than five years.

Teresa May, Home Secretary, said that these reforms can not only ensure that overseas tourists and diplomatic ambassadors are accompanied by domestic employees, but also prevent some low-skilled workers from coming to the UK for permanent residence.

Karayaan? Jenny Portsmouth, an organization that protects the rights and interests of migrant domestic workers, opposes the Ministry of the Interior's stipulation that domestic workers cannot change employers. She said:? This decision deprives domestic workers of an important means to protect themselves from abuse by their employers. This made the society retrogress to 15 years ago, and domestic workers were sent abroad because of the abuse of their masters. This decision is meaningless and runs counter to the anti-slavery spirit expressed by Prime Minister Cameron in 20110. ?

In this regard, the Ministry of the Interior stated that the Tier5 visa application document included a restrictive clause signed by both employers and employees. This clause will clearly stipulate working hours and wages, and follow the laws of Britain and the European Union.
