Reform UK has pledged to imprison bosses whose companies employ illegal migrants, presenting the proposal as a way to prevent businesses from benefiting from unlawful employment without facing consequences.
The party also says larger companies could receive fines equal to 10% of their global revenues under the plan. The proposed penalty would target firms that employ illegal workers, although the available details do not set out how the policy would be implemented.
Reform UK described the measures as part of its approach to tackling illegal migration and corporate responsibility. The proposals focus on both criminal penalties for company leaders and substantial financial sanctions for larger businesses.
