VISA rules are being eased for overseas builders, carpenters and people working in the fishing industry, the Home Office has confirmed reports the BBC.
Roofers and plasterers have also been added to the Shortage Occupation List, which temporarily eases visa restrictions in areas where employers are struggling to fill vacancies.
The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) advised adding builders to the list.
No Home Office minister was available for comment on the changes.
Advisors on MAC recommended five jobs for inclusion on the list:
- Bricklayers and masons
- Roofers, roof tilers and slaters
- Carpenters and joiners
- Variety of other workers in the construction and building trades
- Plasterers
