❗️SKILLS REQUIREMENT EASING FOR SOME ROLES ❗️

The Government is creating short-term exemptions to the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV) skills requirements for a limited number of roles and sectors.

These changes are designed to avoid shortages in specified sectors while long-term AEWV changes are being decided.

The exemptions will be available for:

✅New applicants applying for select meat and seafood processing roles.
✅Some current visa holders renewing their AEWV for work covered under the tourism & hospitality and care workforce sector agreements. Their application must be for the same occupation that they are currently in.

The exemptions will be in place on 8 September 2024.
