Young Brits could be allowed to work in Majorca with major deal on the horizon

       Young Brits travelling to Majorca over the summer to work in the island's booming tourism industry was particularly popular until Brexit put an end to it.

       However, that could all change very soon. Prime Minister Keir Starmer is planning to offer a youth mobility scheme similar to Australia's.

       The plan would allow people between the ages of 18 and 30 to work and live in the UK for up to two years, and for those from Australia, Canada, or New Zealand, the possibility of extending the visa for an additional year after the two-year period draws to an end.

       The scheme would also then allow 18 to 30-year-old Brits similar access to countries in the European Union.

       If approved for the visa, Gov.uk states that young people would be able to work in most jobs as well as be self-employed and set up a company as long as the premises are rented, equipment is not worth more than £5,000 and employees are not hired.

       According to immigration observatory data, as of December 31, 2022 there were 412,040 Brits living in Spain, the figures have slightly risen but would have been more if new rules, and restrictions such as the 90-day rule was scrapped and the freedom of movement reintroduced, especially for young people looking for work, reports Majorca Daily Bulletin.

       Therefore, this new scheme is already set to be a major benefit, as Spain has the fastest-growing economy in the EU, and an influx of skilled immigrants is playing a huge part in this.

       People from overseas have managed to fill in the labour shortages currently impacting Spain's technology and hospitality sectors, which is recognised as travel Association ABTA is also campaigning for the scheme.

       Chief Executive, Mark Tanzer said: "It is clear that the UK's departure from the EU has created new barriers for UK travel businesses providing holidays in Europe, not least of which is restricted staff mobility - the ability of UK travel businesses to hire UK nationals to work in the EU and support the delivery of holidays to UK travellers.

       "Attracting talent to our industry is paramount, and the sharp decline in temporary tourism roles across Europe is something our team here at ABTA is focused on.

       "We're regularly promoting the benefits of the international travel sector to politicians, highlighting our sector's contribution to the UK economy and what it needs to thrive, and promoting the industry as a great place to work in order to support staff retention and recruitment."
