Work Permit relaxation for Chefs from the Indian sub-continent
‘UK Indian restaurants are in crisis. Salary restrictions for Bangladeshi chefs have led to the closure of many businesses. We are calling for the UK government to institute a fair work permit system before it is too late for the curry industry. The current minimum qualification is £29,750, the UK national minimum wage for full time employees over 25 is £15,210!
Why is this important?
We must act now before the Country suffers terrible losses to this marvellous part of our culture.
Please get involved and help to preserve this culinary art that is enjoyed by millions.
World renowned chef, Tommy Miah MBE, has raised this petition at a crucial time for the UK Curry Industry.
