All applications for employment permits are processed in line with the Employment Permits Acts and associated Regulations which lay down in legislation the criteria in relation to the application, grant and refusal of an employment permit. All employment permits are employer and location specific.

Where an employer requires an employee to work in more than one location then this should be notified to the Department at the time of application. Where there is a change of location proposed after a permit has issued the Department must be contacted and notified in advance of any move to determine if a new employment permit is required.

It is not possible for an employment permit holder to change employer without a new employment permit issuing.

My officials inform me that they met with the employer (details supplied) to discuss this issue and had sought further information from the employer in advance of any decision being taken within the framework of the relevant legislation. This information has not yet been received.
