UK Needs Immigrants, Says CBI

In a recent report, the Confederation of British Industry (CBI) has stated that the United Kingdom needs immigrants. This is primarily because of the young Britons. There are jobs that need the young Britons. However, the young ones would not move to where the jobs need them to be.

They furthermore claimed that aside from not being willing to move to where the jobs are, the young ones also are not interested in doing important work which may include caring for the country’s elderly residents. With the need for manpower for these essential duties, CBI has come to state that the best way to get people doing what needs to be done would be to welcome immigrants to the country.

Open the borders for foreign workers

Carolyn Fairbairn works as the director-general of CBI. She told members of the Parliament that it is a very important factor for the country to keep the borders open for any foreign workers. The need for laborers is high in the country and with the young Britons not amenable to the types of work available, immigrants need to take the spot and get the jobs done.

According to Fairbairn, the United Kingdom has parts where there is huge need for workers. Along with that, unemployment has a really low rate like in Exeter. Those who are unemployed are not willing to move to places that need them. Many of the unemployed individuals of Britain are on the other end of the UK and are not willing to transfer despite the opportunity for work.

Immigration is the answer

The UK government is high on looking for the right people to complete projects that they have in store. One of the top industries that are looking for workers would be the construction industry. The government has infrastructure projects and other developments planned. With the younger Britons not interested, the workforce is now dependent on the immigrants to the country.

Britain’s exit from the European Union has been about curbing the inflow of immigrants. It also has been focused on making sure that those coming in would be skilled highly as they can easily help out with the financial services of the country. However, this can be quite a problem as there is also a need for other types of workers which the younger Britons are not happy to do.

The need for the young

Fairbairn has been recorded saying that the country’s population is growing older. That is why the country should be happy to welcome the younger ones who would be more than happy to take care of that older population.

With the aging population having a harder time doing the jobs that need to be completed, only the younger folk can complete what needs to be done. And with the younger residents not happy to take on the job, the country should be happy to embrace the need for immigrants to the UK.
