When it comes to recruiting foreign workers for Australian businesses, two key concepts often come into play: Labor Market Testing (LMT) and advertising requirements. Let's explore these terms, their differences, and their significance in the context of hiring foreign workers.
🔍 Key Insights:
Labor Market Testing (LMT): LMT refers to the requirement for employers to demonstrate that they have tested the local labor market to identify suitable Australian candidates before sponsoring a foreign worker on a visa. This involves advertising the job vacancy in Australia through specified channels and allowing sufficient time for local candidates to apply and be considered for the position.
Advertising requirements: Advertising requirements dictate the methods, duration, and content of job advertisements used to fulfill LMT obligations. These may vary depending on the visa subclass and the specific circumstances of the position. Common advertising channels include online job portals, newspapers, professional networks, and industry-specific publications.
Purpose and objectives: The primary objective of LMT and advertising requirements is to protect the Australian labor market by ensuring that job opportunities are first offered to local candidates before considering overseas applicants. By giving Australian workers a fair chance to compete for available positions, these measures aim to prioritize local employment and address skills shortages through domestic recruitment efforts.
