LEGALIZATION OF GUEST WORKERS

Engaging foreign citizens’ labor inevitably involves the employer in issuing the required package of approvals, adherence to the terms and procedure of notification of state structures, strict implementation of the immigration legislation rules. Breach of any of the duties of the employer while they are being performed entails substantial administrative penalties and failures in the organization performance.
