Neil Morrison has brought in specialist chefs from India to work at Macgochans bar in Tobermory and The Ben Nevis Bar in Fort William.
Desperate Highland firms are having to bring in foreign workers on special visas to deal with a major staffing crisis blamed on Brexit. They claim it’s the only way to deal with a drop in income caused by having to partly close restaurants and cafes as there are no staff to work in them.
He is also buying properties for his staff to live in. Neil said:“It was the only way I could see out of it. It was preemptive because I could see other places not being able to open their doors so thought we had better act now. We have also bought flats for staff accommodation.” Stuart, 64, who has been in the hospitality business for 30 years, said: “To us, this is worse than the pandemic because there is no redress to it. The Government isn’t going to say, ‘Here’s something to help you through the winter’.”
A Scottish Government spokesman said: “An urgent reassessment of UK Government immigration policy is necessary to increase access to the international labour Scotland needs for our economy and communities to prosper.
