Immigration Law and Advice
Migrant employment law
Advice and advocacy on employment law issues for employers and employees. Dispute resoltion, employment contracts and employment rights and obligations for migrants
Employment advice
Employing migrant workers and be immensely beneficial to your business, but it has to be done right and there are many differences to be aware of compared to hiring Kiwi workers. Fundamentally there is much in common, and what applies to both migrant workers and Kiwi workers, applies equally. For example you need employment contracts, holiday and pay obligations are the same, your interview process does not need to be different, etc. But where there are differences, such as with visas, then special care needs to be taken so employers do not inadvertantly break the law. The law around visas and immigration have specific requirements that are sometimes different to the usual case.
