EU work visa that UK offshore workers can apply for without employer sponsorship. The existing visa routes require either a job offer or high-level qualifications, making it difficult for UK offshore workers, self-employed contractors, or temporary workers to access legal employment in the EU

Additional details

Simplified Self-Employed or Contractor Visa with EU or individual countries or introduce a freelancer/contractor visa that does not require a sponsor. This could work similarly to digital nomad visas but would allow short-term work in regulated industries for offshore workers UK and EU could negotiate a sector-specific agreement for offshore workers, allowing temporary work permits
