About this Event
Australia’s ongoing skills shortages, spanning many industries from IT to construction, have left businesses competing for talent and increasingly turning towards skilled migrants to fill critical roles. Yet, navigating the employer-sponsored migration process can be challenging and complex without expert guidance.
Join Yvette Gasic, Head of Migration, and Lisa Qiu, Partner– Employment, as they dissect everything employers need to know about employing skilled migrants, visa types, and immigration law. This session will be hosted in person exclusively for our Sydney-based clients.
At this session, we’ll discuss:
- Different types of employer-sponsored visas, including processing times and costs;
- The details of sponsorship obligations;
- Recoverable costs and whether they can be recouped from the employee;
- Determining the right employment contract type to offer, including essential clauses on payment recovery and employee obligations to comply with visa conditions;
- Your employer obligations under the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) and Migration Act 1958 (Cth); and
- What to do when the Fair Work Ombudsman or Department of Home Affairs comes knocking.
