The New Aged Care Industry Labour Agreement

In a significant step towards addressing the evolving needs of Australia’s aging population, the Australian government announced the introduction of the new Aged Care Industry Labour Agreement. This agreement opens up new avenues for aged care providers to tap into a global pool of skilled care workers and address their workforce shortages otherwise not available through the standard visa programs. This streamlined process allows employers to bring in overseas talent to fill crucial roles in the aged care sector for specific occupations, where suitably qualified Australians are not readily available. Aged care providers are able to recruit foreign workers for a period of up to 4 years through the Temporary Skill Shortage (subclass 482) (TSS) visa or permanently through the Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass  186) (ENS) visa.
