Overview
A clear, personalized path from assessment to decision.
A Labour Market Impact Assessment is Employment and Social Development Canada's opinion that hiring a foreign worker will not negatively affect the Canadian labour market. Most LMIA streams require documented recruitment, prevailing wage compliance, and a transition or benefits plan.
Who this is generally for
- Genuine business operations and an ongoing need for the position
- Advertising that satisfies the applicable stream's recruitment requirements
- Wage at or above the prevailing wage for the occupation and region
- A compliant employment contract and, where required, a transition plan
