British businesses warn plans to tighten immigration rules on foreign workers will lead to labor shortages in key sectors.

The government announced plans on Monday to tighten the rules on who can come to the U.K. to work, study and live in the country.

Sectors that are traditionally reliant on immigrant workers warn the rule changes will exacerbate labor shortages already present in the labor market.

Businesses will now have to carefully consider the detail of proposals to limit visas for skilled jobs below degree level, the CBI says.

Firms need access to the right skills to grow the economy, and for some businesses that will include bringing people from outside the U.K. Businesses are keen to unlock more "home-grown talent," a Chambers of Commerce official says.
