Immigration & Citizenship

Immigration and citizenship pertain to the legal status of individuals in a country. Immigration refers to the process of people moving into a new country to live and work, while citizenship is the official recognition and membership of an individual within that country, entitling them to certain rights and responsibilities. HR is responsible for ensuring that employees are legally eligible to work in the country. Compliance with immigration laws is critical to prevent legal issues, fines, and disruptions to business operations. HR must be vigilant about monitoring and adapting to changes in immigration policies and regulations to ensure the organization remains compliant and can attract talent from a global pool.
