'Rogue employers to face illegal working crackdown
15 May 2007

The Home Office drive against illegal working moved forward today as talks began with industry on the implementation of tough new legislation designed to crackdown on bogus employees.

The new rules will see rogue employers face a prison sentence and/or an unlimited fine if found knowingly employing illegal workers. Civil penalties will also be levied on companies which have been negligent in carrying out checks on workers. The level at which these fines will be set and how they will be imposed is now the subject of a consultation, published today.

The new measures, which will take effect early next year, are part of the Home Office’s Illegal Working Action Plan, launched today, co-ordinated through the new Border and Immigration Agency (BIA). It follows measures designed to toughen border controls, double enforcement resources and joint work with police and benefits agencies to tackle illegal immigration and its consequences.'

:xxgrinning--00xx3: send the employers to prison, those who employ illegeal workers, and exploit them should goto prison, but how many will ever be behind bars, :NoNo: , same as if your claiming unemployment benefit and are working :D .

I would not be surprised if if the "rogue" employers were labour voters.... Or party coffers donors...
So everything could get swept under the carpet, just as many other things in the past...
A bit of whitewash here... a bit there...
Never seen a shower of :censored: like that in all my life...

If he had "donanted" a few hundred quid to Labour, he'd be ok now, and with a Lordship in the bag.......:icon_lol:

I agree, if you break the law, you deserve to be punished. Ignorance is not an excuse or an extenuating circumstance.

But nowadays, unfortunately, you get into trouble even if you are an innocent bystander. :cwm23:
