Hiring hospitality workers from Europe

Hi, my name Is Saverio. I am a restaurant Manager in Edinburgh.

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to hire waiting staff from Europe... even for short term?

  • Hi, not all students are eligible to work 20 hours per week. Students who are studying for a qualification below degree leve, e.g. foundation or pre-sessional English Language programmes can only work for 10 hours per week during term time and you need to know what the term time dates are - that is, they need to be included in your right to work check documents on file. You could approach the College yourself to ask them what they tell their overseas students (if it's not on their web page) and then you would know excatly what to offer students from that particular College. All education institutes are very careful about managing working hours for students because of the impact on their licence if a student breaches the hours.
