This briefing paper examines Scottish employers’ and industry representatives’ views on current UK immigration policies, and situates these perspectives within the context of the constitutional change debate. The research is based on an online survey of more than 700 Scottish employers, supplemented with 20 in-depth interviews. The survey revealed that employers overwhelmingly perceived unrestricted migration for EU citizens as positive for Scottish business, and Scotland more broadly. Employers are concerned that Scottish independence, or the UK changing its relationship with the EU, may interrupt the freedom of EU citizens to live and work in Scotland. Conversely, some employers viewed the current Points-Based System (PBS), which regulates non-EU migration, as restrictive and failing to meet their business needs. They saw the constitutional change debate as presenting an opportunity to lobby the UK and Scottish Governments for a more nuanced immigration policy that better meets their needs; whether or not Scotland remains a part of the UK.
