After 12 strong years in the industry, Job Capital has had its status as a reliable and trustworthy On Hire Labour company reconfirmed this week when the Department of Home Affairs renewed its agreement for an unprecedented 5 years. It has also had the standard limit on professions and trades that it can employ lifted, to now offer services for 416 eligible skilled occupations across all industries.
It is currently one of the few On Hire Labour companies in Australia to achieve this status since the dramatic changes in the 457 Visa programs in April 2018. Via Job Capital’s OHLA (On Hire Labour Agreement), it is able to nominate, sponsor, and employ workers on the subclass 482 visa to be on-hired to an unrelated business in all categories on the Short Term Skill Occupation List (STSOL) and Medium and Long Term Strategic Skills List (MLTSSL) providing the annual salary is $65,000 or more.
This visa, referred to as the TSS (Temporary Skills Shortage) visa, enables employers to address labour shortages by bringing in genuinely skilled workers where they cannot source an appropriately skilled Australian. Job Capital simplifies this process for clients who are faced with skills shortages in the market by supplying skilled candidates via the subclass 482 visa.
Job Capital, with its partners, manages the entire candidate experience, from appropriate role and contract fit, labour market testing, and managing the visa application and migration criteria, to organising the relevant insurances. Particularly for companies with a high proportion of foreign contingent workers in the ITC, engineering and project management sectors, this service has proven priceless in terms of the time, money and energy usually required to organise hiring these much-needed employees directly.
Job Capital provides faster access to skilled workers, and removes barriers for employers who are not experts in Australia’s complicated migration and visa policies, or who perhaps are unable to sponsor candidates themselves and too busy simply getting on with business as usual.
“This is Job Capital’s third On-Hire Labour Agreement in our 12 year history,” says Founder and CEO Jo Burston. “We are proud to be considered low risk and are now enabled to have a scope of hundreds of professionals that we are able to sponsor. For our clients, it means no hoop jumping, reduced costs and risk mitigation when it comes to visas, plus access to the right candidates to complete large scale projects. For our candidates, it means a career in Australia and peace of mind being well cared for by us.”
