Abstract
The construction industry is one of a number of UK industries that relies on EU migrant labour. The government plans to control EU migration after Brexit, but migration controls may prevent businesses from being able to respond flexibly to unavoidable fluctuations in the construction market. Targeted regulations of migrant labour could reduce labour market uncertainty and job competition between UK and migrant workers more effectively. This briefing considers evidence from UK construction employers, non-UK workers, recruitment agencies and other stakeholders and analyses the impact of migrant labour regulations in the construction industries in Canada, Switzerland and Norway. It sets out recommendations for how migrant labour regulations might be implemented in the UK.
