Australia PEO approved for On-Hire Labour Agreement
Australia PEO has been granted an On-hire Industry Labour Agreement by the Australian Department of Home Affairs. This significant achievement marks a pivotal moment in our growth and service capabilities, enabling us to better meet the dynamic needs of our clients.
The On-hire Industry Labour Agreement enables Australia PEO to sponsor skilled overseas workers for a Temporary Skills Shortage Visa (subclass 482), on a temporary basis for specific occupations.
This agreement is tailored to industries and sectors where there is a demonstrated need for skilled labour that cannot be met within the Australian labour market.
What occupations can Australia PEO sponsor?
Australia PEO can sponsor skilled overseas workers for any occupation on the list of eligible skilled occupations, for periods of up to 4 years.
What this means for international and local businesses
The On-Hire Labour Agreement allows us to offer our clients a flexible and scalable workforce solution, whether they’re overseas companies wishing to retain skilled staff who are relocating to Australia, or local companies wishing to hire skilled workers from overseas.
For local companies without an existing sponsorship agreement in place, Australia PEO’s recent agreement enables them to gain access to skilled overseas workers, enhancing operational flexibility, addressing critical skills shortages, boosting competitive advantage and maintaining high service standards.
For our overseas workers, the agreement provides a clear and regulated pathway to employment in Australia, offering them opportunities to contribute to our clients’ projects and gain valuable international work experience.
This mutually beneficial arrangement promotes cultural exchange and knowledge transfer, enriching both our company and the broader community.
We are committed to adhering to the stringent requirements and standards set forth by the Department of Home Affairs.
This includes ensuring fair work practices, providing a safe and inclusive workplace, and supporting the professional development of our employees.
Our adherence to these principles is integral to fostering a positive and productive work environment for all team members.
The approval of our On-Hire Labour Agreement represents a significant milestone for our company.
It enhances our ability to deliver exceptional services, supports our clients' evolving needs, and contributes to the broader Australian economy by addressing critical skill shortages.
We look forward to leveraging this opportunity to drive our continued success and growth.
