Expert Advice as a Key Partner Supplier of AHA (Vic)
In the heart of Australia’s thriving hospitality sector, the success of hoteliers and restaurateurs’ hinges on the global talent pool. The Temporary Skill Shortage (TSS) visa (subclass 482 visa) stands as a key to accessing this essential resource. Yet, navigating the visa’s requirements, including the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold (TSMIT) of $70,000, ensuring competitive market rates, and aligning with relevant awards, is crucial for fair and compliant international recruitment.
482 Visa Sponsorship
For 482 visa sponsorship, it’s vital to ensure that the offered salary not only meets the $70,000 TSMIT but also corresponds with the Annual Market Salary Rate (AMSR), reflecting what an Australian in a similar role would earn. This promotes fairness and adherence to the Department of Home Affairs guidelines. The AMSR evaluation requires a thorough market salary review to ensure that wages are competitive within the Australian labour market for similar positions. Additionally, compliance with relevant industry awards or enterprise agreements is essential. These benchmarks confirm that salary and job conditions meet or exceed industry standards, necessitating detailed documentation for proof.
Consider the scenario at “The Seaside Inn”, where a foreign pastry chef is needed due to local skill shortages. The approach involves:
- TSMIT: Setting a minimum salary of $70,000 ensures the international chef is compensated fairly, meeting the baseline requirement for 482 visa holders.
- Market Rate: Conducting research to determine competitive salaries for local pastry chefs, ensuring your offer is both competitive and fair.
- Relevant Award: Following the Hospitality Industry (General) Award 2020 guidelines to ensure wages and conditions are fair for your overseas hire.
Effective compliance includes researching job boards for competitive salaries and documenting these findings to demonstrate adherence to market rate requirements. If research indicates that local pastry chefs earn between $65,000 and $75,000, offering $70,000 aligns with both TSMIT and market expectations.
Consulting the relevant award ensures the compensation package includes all necessary conditions, such as overtime and penalties.
Offering a $70,000 salary meets TSMIT requirements and ensures fairness, making your offer attractive to international talents and compliant with Australian labour and immigration laws.
