I own a food franchise in one of the major mall in the Lower Mainland.  The head office is based in Calgary Alberta.  I would like to hire workers from the Philippines.

My question is, do I have to go through an employment agency or hire directly from the Philippines?  What are the costs involved?

Please advise.  Thank you.

As far as I know you can directly hire filipinos to work in your restaurant..by the way I send PM to you...I'm very interested to work in your country. I'm in Manila Philippines. If you want I could help you with no charge of course. I can ask someone here who work in POEA (one of our family close friend) what are the procedure to hire filipinos. But I know that we need LMO, Contract etc. I send you my email add. Please check you Pm...Thanks

hi, if i were you don't hire in the philippines coz it takes time to process their applications. Better to hire Filipinos who are working outside the Philippines. You could hire in Dubai, Hongkong, Taiwan, Qatar, Kuwait & the processing outside Philippines is so fast! Please give me your address & I will pass it on to my friends. I have lots of friend outside in the Philippines that are interested and willing to work in Calgary & Alberta they are ready to go now but needs employer... DOn't use agency coz they are usually charging the applicants to get in Calgary & Alberta. Usually 5,500 cdn is the fee not good for the applicants & that's ridiculous! I feel sorry for them...

hi, i'm currently living here in alberta under a temporary work visa.  it will be expiring around september and my work permit will expire by october.  i'm very much interested to apply in your company, although i must tell you this early that i'm 1 month pregnant and not married.  i am looking for ways to extend my stay here in canada, because there's a possibility that my employer will refuse to help me renew my papers when they find out about my condition. 

i fervently hope that you'll consider hiring me.  i'm a good worker and has been working for the fastfood industry for 15 years, 10 of them in a managerial position, when i was still in the philippines.  i promise to work hard and do the best that i can and be a n exemplary worker for you.

i just need a new contract and a positive labour market opinion from you so i can apply for a new work permit and visa.

i sincerely hope you will help me.  i want this baby to be born in his father's country and be eligible for the rights that he is entitled to.

my email address is rowena_1017@hotmail.com and i will pray for any reply from you.  thank you very much

hi, i'm curently working here in Taiwan as a contract worker. If you really want filipino food server to work in your fast food company, i am at your service. My job here is not inline with it but i have an experience because before we have our own canteen and i worked there as food servant and sometimes i do cooking. To tell you honestly hiring in our country Philippines will take longer time unlike outside the country like here in Taiwan, it will only takes few months as long as we have LMO and arranged employment coming from you ofcourse. I hope this will serve as a good idea for you and i hope also you could help me in this regard. my email ad is aynrah08@yahoo.com

 I can answer this first hand because I met the Philippine Labour Office head for Western Canada When He went to Victoria,If you are hiring 5 employees or less you can hire them directly after passing through his office in Vancouver for Authentication,If you hire 6 or more you have to go through an agency otherwise even if they have tickets,visas etc They may be held at the Airport in Manila and not allowed to leave.Little background,My day job is working for one of the BC MLA s involved in Immigration policy in BC .To the Pinoys outside the Philippines,This does not apply to you,only those from the Philippines.Furthermore It is illegal for any Employment agency to charge you a placement fee.If you are charged,simply bring the receipt to employment standards when you get to BC and they will help you get it back.Secondly after working for 9 months,you are entitled to apply for permanent resident status under BC PNP,so you can bring your family into Canada.Finally If you are ever terminated,your employer cannot force you to leave Canada,You can find a new employer as long as your visa is still valid.You will love BC

Rowena It is illegal to terminate somebody because she is pregnant under Alberta law,If you had worked in BC,you would have been eligible to file for PR status after 9 months of work,besides since when has not being married been an issue,if you are still living with your childs father you are eligible to be sponsored as his domestic partner Cheers

Hello! Gud AM! If you really need someone who can help you to get workers here in the Philippines my husband auntie's have an agency for foreign contract worker you can email her at azon88@telus.net Business Address: 94 Cranleigh Way S.E Calgary Alberta T3m 1C8 calgary alberta.I hope she can help you a lot. If you want to contact her just email her. She can help you a lot.

Secondly, If you hired a Filipino worker or in other country you provided some of the expenses except the processing fee and all personal expense.

I also want to apply from your food franchise..My husband is already in tacotime chinook mall calgary.If you are interested knowing my qualification I am willing to send my resume.I'm here in the Philippines.Please email me at wawsky22@yahoo.com.


Just make sure your Auntie s Agency has a BC License,Otherwise Your Auntie s firm faces Big Fines,A Alberta Employment License does not entitle you to recruit for BC,Your auntie s firm should be licensed by BC Ministry of Labour.I would hate to see your Auntie get into trouble

Dear BC Guy:

I finally received my approved/positive LMO for three staff (NOC 6641) from Service Canada.  It took some time since I did the application myself and had to go through tough scrutiny from the Foreign Worker Specialist.  What is the process from this point?  I know I'll have to submit some documents to the POLO Office in Vancouver but what do my staff in the Philippines have to do?  Please advise.

If you are hiring less then 5 people,You dont have to go through an agency in the Philippines,Just have your contract authenticated by the POLO in Vancouver.You can look for Ruth,She is the Administrative person.Any problems?,Contact me by PM,Atty Bernie Julve,the head of the POLO office is a friend of mine
