Key Findings Nationals from the Accession 8 countries continue to come to the UK to work, contributing

to the success of the UK economy, whilst making few demands of our welfare system.

In total there were 447,000 applicants to the Worker Registration Scheme (WRS) between1 May 2004 and 30 June 2006.

Accession workers are continuing to go where the work is, helping to fill the gaps in our labour market, particularly in administration, business and management, hospitality andcatering, agriculture, manufacturing and food, fish and meat processing.

In many cases, Accession nationals are supporting the provision of public services incommunities across the UK. Between July 2004 and June 2006, almost 6,500 Accessionnationals registered as bus, lorry and coach drivers and 12,700 as care workers. There were1,500 teachers, researchers and classroom assistants; 600 dental practitioners (includinghygienists and dental nurses); and over 2,000 GPs, hospital doctors, nurses and medicalspecialists.

14% of the total registered workers were based in London. However, as workers are basedall over the UK the proportion applying to London fell from 25% in Q2 2004 to 9% in Q2

2006. As the proportion applying elsewhere has increased, the Anglia region has nowovertaken London with 15% of the total registered workers.

97% of workers were working full time, and 98% of applications for National Insurancenumbers made by Accession country nationals between May 2004 and June 2006 were for employment purposes.

The vast majority of workers are young. 82% of workers were aged between 18 and 34.93% of registered workers state they have no dependants living with the m in the UK whenthey registered, and only 3% had dependants under the age of 17 with them.

The numbers applying for tax -funded income-related benefits and housing support remain

low. For example, only 5,943 applications for Income Support and Jobseeker 's Allowancewere processed between May 2004 and June 2006, and of these applications only 768 wereallowed to proceed for further consideration.

Supply and Demand of labour

Every organisation required qualified labour to deliver their product and services to achieveorganisational objectives and goals. This demand need to be supplied from existing labour market, some scenario labour are experienced and qualified and other cases if organisationhas distinctive and particular way of work practice then it tend to provide training anddevelopment programme for workers.

Hospitality organisation is most human intensive industry to good care of customers andable to interact with customers to understand their needs and deliver services to satisfy their needs, so combination of job knowledge, work experience and other variable knowledgecould help to deliver better service to customers needs.

Labour is most crucial factors for any economic activity during industrial revolution inEngland there were very high demand of labour so its been found that there too many childlabour and labour imported from former colonial countries to meet demand of labour onconstruction industries (bui lding rail network) and other public service like bus drivers andothers, recently past labour government import as migrant worker to work in NHS as nurses

from different part of world. These types of Labour movement occurred occasionally due togovernment policy and existing countries economic activity.

Supply of labour for particular industries cant be balanced u nless there are significantbenefit and skill available and directly affected with PESTLE factors. Social factors arecrucial and government policy is most important. Most of the job offer minimum wages andother hand if people are receiving benefit then they may not take those minimum skillrequired job so in contrast it remain labour shortages for those low paid and socially lessvalued job which is fulfilled by overseas workers. This is important how society and itspayment systems motivate people to make carrier in that particular job, if its left in marketforce to make work demand and supply then hardly few business will survive because itforce to high cost. However there are many examples what society gives value for particular professions; in Restaurant there are very few English do like to make carrier as comparewith French people but there are significantly high no of English people l ikes to work atBar/Pub sector of business which is social and life style effects. There were significantproportion of labour shortage i n hospitality/food processing/building/agriculture/security andNHS industries until 2004 before more European countri es join the European Union andsupplied balanced labour forces in this sectors. There are few example of agricultureprocessing business could make example of this labour shortage issues, tomatoes grown inUK and sent to Holland to process and package and supply in UK market is cheapest way toprocess which is cause of unit labour cost involved in process.

There are lots of issues about labour Market due to introduction of minimum wages in highlabour costs. Most of the UKs labour and human intensive sectors been diverted to other countries such as chocolate factory shifted to Poland call centre in India and most of the UKbased companies processing and manufacturing sector are based in overseas countries

where cheap labour are available.

However some industries in UK particularly retail and hospitality sectors are enjoying cheaplabour sources, McDonald, KFC, Pizza Hut and most of the retail business supermarket andhigh street outlets labour demand is supplied from part time worker and minimum wagesworker such as students and migrant worker. Those people who couldnt claimunemployment benefits from the government.

There are unbelievably loopholes in labour market in UK its interesting to unveil thatEuropean Union citizen may freely move to work fro m one country to another however twodifferent countries are not well coordinating to find data of worker from one place to another,some worker from Spain, France, Italy come to UK for short term about 2 and half year and

ready to work in less than minimum wages because same time they are receiving benefitfrom their origin country as well which help UK business to make profit this kind of graylabour market is influenced by lack of Euro zone government co -ordination and marketmechanism is less effective.
