Frequently asked questions

When do we need a labour agreement?

When the occupations, salary levels or worker numbers you need fall outside the standard sponsorship program — common in aged care, meat, fishing and on-hire. We assess whether an agreement is the right route.

Company-specific vs industry labour agreement?

Industry agreements (e.g. the Aged Care Industry Labour Agreement) use pre-set terms; a company-specific agreement is negotiated for your unique case. We advise which is faster and stronger for you.

How complex is it?

It's the most complex sponsorship matter — significant evidence, consultation and negotiation. Advisory fees typically start around $15,000. We scope precisely before you commit.

How long does it take?

Longer than standard sponsorship, given negotiation. We prepare thoroughly to keep it moving and start your nominations as soon as it's executed.
