New Employment Immigration Rules in Canada.
The amendments in previous working rules
Canada government has introduced new employer rules, for the temporary foreign workers, come into being from 1st April 2011.These new rules have its applicability to both labor market and exempt work permits. These changes will provide government with greater power to keep a watch on temporary foreign workers and their employers. Fail to comply with the changes leads to serious penalties on part of guilty employer.
The new rules will increase compliance in the foreign worker system, irrespective of which government department approves the Temporary Worker Application; the new rules apply to Citizenship and Immigration Canada, Canada Border Services Agency and Human Resources and Social Development Canada. Any one of these three ministries must judge the merits of a foreign worker before giving grant to the individual, right to work in Canada.
Why these changes are required.
The government affirms that through these amendments, through it they aim to reduce Temporary Foreign Worker exploitation by employers and agents. Through it they could protect them. It will also help to increase employer’s accountability including denial of service and to encourage adherence to terms and conditions. To highlight the fact that work permits are meant to be for temporary purpose only.
New Rules:
· Now there is a requirement to show that offer of employment is genuine and the attendant needs to prove current and previous compliance with foreign workers on staff.
· Any difference from such conformity is questionable and justification is expected on legal grounds.
·However, I appropriate justification is not provided, serious consequences can include a two year ban from hiring any foreign workers. It will put them on “Black list”, which may land them with a negative reputation.
·As now only four year limit on the length of the work term will be provided in Canada, which would be followed by a four year exclusion from obtaining another Work Permit. Employers will now have to plan ahead, and consider whether they can reallocate the foreign workers or not.
The government promises to enforce Canada's foreign worker laws through the new compliance regime. It has been missing from the Temporary Foreign Worker program in the past. It would bring Canada in line with worldwide trends towards compliance with immigration laws. Now it is to be found that the whether the Regulations have gone too far.
