Workforce Mobility and Immigration Policy Adjustments: Cross-Border Employment in Changing Trade Environments
Join us from 2-3 pm EDT on Thursday, October 16th for an interactive session with Stephen Green! With new tariffs reshaping trade dynamics, Canadian businesses must understand workforce mobility and immigration policy adjustments to secure skilled talent, adapt to cross-border restrictions, and sustain operational efficiency.
New Challenges from Tariffs:
- Reduced Access to Foreign Talent – Stricter immigration policies limiting the mobility of specialized workers.
- Increased Labour Costs – Domestic hiring pressures and skills shortages can drive up wages.
- Work Permit & Visa Delays – Heightened trade tensions may lead to longer processing times for cross-border employment.
- Relocation & Workforce Shifts – Companies may need to move operations or personnel to mitigate tariff impacts.
- Compliance Risks & Legal Uncertainty – Changing policies create challenges in maintaining regulatory compliance for cross-border employees.
