Workplace Law
Employer-sponsored immigration programs require Australian employers to engage expatriate workers much the same as they would local hires. However, there are a number of practical differences in the relationship between employers and their foreign workers which can be appropriately managed through the terms of the employment agreement.
We are experienced in optimising standard form employment agreements to assist sponsors in managing the immigration-specific obligations owed to their employees and to the Commonwealth.
Compliance for Businesses & Employer Sponsors
Employing foreign workers has many benefits however it’s important to remember, it comes with obligations. The Australian Government has significantly increased fines and penalties for companies and individuals unlawfully engaging foreign workers without the appropriate work rights.
To avoid a breach and significant penalties from Australian Border Force, we undertake compliance audits / pre-audit health checks to ensure businesses employing and/or sponsoring foreign workers comply with all relevant legal undertakings, including:
- Stay compliant with Government regulations
- Understand Government contracts & migrant worker clauses
- Record keeping, reporting
