Hospice chief exec says relaxation needed
Changes to the Island's work permit system are a result of an increasing need for qualified healthcare staff, according to Hospice Chief Executive Margaret Simpson.
From October 1, nurses, midwives and social workers who are not Isle of Man workers will no longer need to acquire a permit.
Mrs Simpson says in recent years recruiting qualified workers has become more difficult.
She says it's due to a number of reasons:
New minister promises to remove 'unnecessary barriers' to housing
Rob Callister appointed as new Housing and Communities Minister
'Stay on top of web maintenance' to prevent future issues
