New Australian Federal Plan for Foreign Workers

The new Australian federal plan for foreign workers leaves them in a bit of a disadvantage as they will we be paid 10 percent less of what the normal employer gets paid. The opposition government is not in favor of this plan as it


The

federal plan has brought forward a buzz in Australia due to its strange tactics. Federal Labor has panned federal plans to put an end to the long lasting labor shortages by empowering employers to hire foreign workers for less salary. The government plan is for foreign workers to be paid up to 10 percent less than standard rates, which are stipulated for an average worker in Australia. But Opposition Leader is against this decision of opening doors for foreign migrants to fill the gap in Australian workforce; he suggests jobless Australians must be the priority in these desperate times, given unemployment is now at its peak in a decade. It is understandable that the leaders are not inclined towards giving the majority of the jobs to migrant workers, whereas the local jobless people are not given any priority. In many parts of regional Australia there are high levels of youth unemployment, increased

levels of unemployment of aged Australians, who have been dislocated by the dynamic nature of the Australian economy. The question government needs to explain is why it would exploit underpaid labor from overseas, in preference to finding jobs for unemployed Australians. If you take a closer look the migrant workers are getting jobs in Australia, they get to work in a friendly work environment, being paid a bit less would be manageable for thousands of people who are looking for jobs. Consult Immigration consultants in Australia to guide you through the visa process. The government will allow employers to seek out lower pay rates and straightforward language tests for foreign workers who are willing and can meet an urgent demand for skills in regions that are losing staff by the hour. While Australia has sometimes used guest foreign workers to meet skill shortages in the past, it was based on a


principle that jobs for Australians should be the priority. The new rules, which are likely to anger unions, were reportedly signed off this week and are set to be applied in Darwin then presented in other areas as well where skilled workers are leaving their jobs to join mining and gas companies. In the new plan dozens of job categories will be covered, including childcare workers, caretakers who look after

disabled, mechanics, bricklayers, office managers, carpenters, chefs, nurses and many more. Regardless of the size of their company an employer will be able to sponsor overseas staff on wages up to 10 per cent below rates for a massive 457 skilled worker visas, using a new kind of migration agreement for areas under severe stress.
