Employing staff from abroad

Evening,

In what feels like a constant battle to find summer staff we have a couple of options to make the numbers up. One potential would be coming from France. Putting aside language issues, what do we need to do now to bring foreign staff in to the country to work? We also have a lad from Ireland (as in Southern Ireland, never quite sure what’s politically right with this) who wants to come over, I seem to think that this one is easier and doesn’t require any visas.

Cheers

If you are an NFU member they have a very good paper about this.
The bad news is that it is almost impossible to do this legally.
