Five illegal workers arrested in Blackpool
12 July 2013
Five illegal workers have been detained following an operation by Home Office Immigration Enforcement officers in Blackpool on Thursday 11 July.
Officers visited 2 businesses to carry out checks on the immigration status of staff.
At The Alpine Hotel and Grill Buffet Restaurant Bar on Waterloo Road they arrested 3 Nepalese men aged between 28 and 35 for working illegally and overstaying their visas.
Later officers visited Ayaan Chillies on Talbot Road and found 2 Sri Lankan men aged 21 and 22 who had both overstayed their visas and were working illegally.
All the men are currently detained pending their removal from the UK.
Both businesses will be served with a civil penalty notice for employing the illegal workers. If the employer is unable to provide evidence that legally-required pre employment checks were carried out, a fine of up to £10,000 per worker will be imposed.
Colin Berrington, from the Home Office Immigration Enforcement team, said:
'Illegal working fuels illegal immigration to the UK and that is why we are carrying out operations like these.
'If you are a business you must carry out the correct checks on your staff or you could end up with a heavy fine.
'We are happy to work with businesses to let them know what checks need to be made on staff, but those who break the law should know that they will face heavy fines.'
Measures to toughen civil penalties against rogue businesses employing illegal migrants, while cutting red tape for legitimate employers, have been unveiled by the Government.
A six-week consultation has been launched as part of government plans under the Immigration Bill to make it more difficult for illegal migrants to live and work in the UK, and to take tougher action against the rogue employers who exploit them. The consultation can be accessed at consultations section of this website.
Immigration Minister Mark Harper said:
'Every day our enforcement officers undertake operations like this across the country to combat illegal working.
'Employers already have a duty to check that their employees have the right to work in the UK, and can face civil penalties if they fail to do so. The Immigration Bill, which we will introduce later this year, will include proposals to get even tougher on unscrupulous employers, who exploit illegal immigrants and undercut legitimate business. But we will also simplify processes to make it easier for compliant employers to fulfill their responsibilities.'
Anyone with information about immigration offenders can report crime on this website, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
