I've signed a job offer in UK. What will the impact of the EU referendum mean for me?

Hi Anya,

Congrats on the job offer. 

For now, your rights remain the same so I would carry on as planned. It'll take some time for them to figure out the details of the exit and how it'll effect the rights of workers. 

From media reports, there has been an increase in the number of race-related crimes and there have been reports on social media about hostility towards foreigners. However, I think its important to understand that the media do have a habit of exaggerating what could be isolated incidents.

Also bear in mind that 48 percent voted against Brexit. Furthermore, not everyone who voted out of the EU didn't vote solely on immigration issues.

I'm sure you'll be fine in London, so try not to let this effect you too much.
