The research department of a university business school has undertaken some consultancy work for the Government. The Government is interested in assessing the impact of Brexit on UK organisation’s recruitment processes and making a comparison between the Manufacturing and Production sector and the Private Sector Services. The Government is therefore interested in examining whether organisations are planning to grow or shrink their workforce, where the potential markets for new staff are seen to be, and whether a new points based immigration system would be seen as problematic in operation.

5. Highlight interesting findings.
6. Make recommendations to the Government about the possible impact of Brexit and the proposed new immigration system on organisations.
