IRCC sets new wage rules for employers recruiting temporary foreign workers

IRCC sets new wage rules for employers recruiting temporary foreign workers From January 1, 2024, employers recruiting through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) must adjust foreign workers' wages to match updated prevailing rates, as per Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). Although some employers are exempt, this usually requires a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA). The Job Bank updates provincial wage differences annually. Canada is inviting foreign workers to boost its economy amid labor shortages, with potential losses of $38 billion due to shortages, as the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) reported. Foreign workers in Canada are legally entitled to the same rights as Canadians, with employers required to ensure a fair work environment and access to healthcare. Even if the prevailing wage falls, the updated wage can never fall below the wage identified in the positive LMIA at any time during a TFW's employment period. Emplo...

Immigrant earnings have increased greater than Canadian earnings

Immigrant earnings have increased greater than Canadian earnings In a groundbreaking analysis conducted for the Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer of Canada, it has been revealed that immigrants are experiencing a remarkable surge in earnings, outstripping the income growth of native Canadians.

A key driving force behind this meteoric rise in immigrant incomes is attributed to pre-existing family networks and prior work experien...

Canada may recruit DACA recipients

Canada may recruit DACA recipients Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) is a program that protects and provides work authorization to immigrants brought to the US as children. Over 570,000 Dreamers are currently protected by DACA and are productive members of the American economy. However, the program is in legal limbo as Congress has failed to authorize permanent protection, and Republican states are suing to terminate it. Canada is actively recruiting immigrants with US work experience or education and could also attract DACA recipients, highly educated and qualified workers. Canada's Express Entry system could be a viable option for Dreamers, who would be competitive candidates. If Canada poaches Dreamers, the US will face significant economic losses as Canada reaps the benefits of highly productive US-trained immigrants. Canada has stepped up its efforts in recent months to deliberately recruit immigrants with prior education or work experienc...
