Britain's government lately faced a recoil over its new immigration plans post-Brexit that has been intended to slash "cheap labor from Europe" in favor of highly-proficient English speakers as well as bolstering the domestic workforce.

The Home Office had stated that the citizens of European Union and others who will be coming to the Britain will be given equal treatment after the completion of the Brexit transition period.

On the other hand, there are several opponents who are against the plan and are of the view that the newly proposed points-based system that is expected to start with the begging of 2021 would probably result at heavy shortfall in several sectors, especially to those that are very much dependent over foreign workers.

Health & wellness, hospitality, construction and food & beverages industries will probably fall under the list of most affected businesses with the inception of the no visa for low-skilled labor plan.

Moreover, industry along with the labor unions enunciated fears in terms of the dearth of provision for low-waged workers that includes agriculture sector where seasonal workers would possibly not meet with new-fangled thresholds.

Under the new immigration plan, skilled workers would be stretched towards including those educated to A-level or equivalent to Scottish Highers unlike the current scenario that accepts just graduate level candidates.

Furthermore, waiting tables along with certain categories of farm worker would possibly be removed from the new category of skilled labors, however new additions may perhaps include plastering, carpentry and child-minding.

The salary range for skilled workers wanting to work in the UK will be slashed from nearly£30,000 to £25,600 especially for the occupations such as nursing, civil engineering, psychology, etc.
