英国放宽了尼日利亚、加纳的外国监狱官员的签证规则,以避免人员配备危机。 UK eases visa rules for foreign prison officers from Nigeria, Ghana to avoid staffing crisis.

联合王国已给予尼日利亚和加纳等国家的外国监狱官员临时签证豁免,以防止人员危机,允许他们在2027年之前在低于33 400英镑的薪金门槛下停留和工作。 The UK has granted temporary visa exemptions to foreign prison officers from nations like Nigeria and Ghana to prevent a staffing crisis, allowing them to stay and work under a lower £33,400 salary threshold until 2027. 这项行动有效期至2026年底,只适用于已经在该国的人,并遵循监狱检查员和工会关于安全和稳定风险的警告。 The move, effective until the end of 2026, applies only to those already in the country and follows warnings from prison inspectors and unions about risks to safety and stability. 这一变化是在移民控制与公共安全平衡的压力下发生的,因为以前的41 700英镑工资要求有可能使2 500多名海外新兵流离失所。 The change comes amid pressure to balance migration control with public safety, as the previous £41,700 salary requirement threatened to displace over 2,500 overseas recruits. 政府表示豁免为增加国内招聘提供了时间, 并同时维持监狱的重要运作。 The government says the exemption provides time to boost domestic recruitment while maintaining critical prison operations.
