Barriers to securing Sponsorship
Economic climate- UK economy like rest pf the world has had a major setback as direct result of Covid-19 pandemic. Many organisations are facing cutbacks, redundancies and are really having to tighten their belts and service. Although some normality is now returning there is still a degree of uncertainty and fears of another lockdown still looming as new variants are identified in the UK. UK economy is still feeling the effects of Brexit and as yet full impact has not been established due to UK and most of Europe being in lockdown.
In short, the economic climate is making employers nervous and uncertain of the future, sponsorship of overseas employees is not a priority. There are only a few sectors such as health sector where sponsorship opportunities are available.
