92,000 Workers Needed in Australia
« on: February 07, 2012, 04:41:26 PM »
February 6, 2012 Good news for overseas workers interested to work in Australia and apply for working visa Australia!
The Australian government just recently admitted a shortfall of 92,000 workers by 2015.

According to federal Tourism Minister Martin Ferguson, due to Australia’s hospitality and tourism industry being so short-staffed, the Australian government is now discussing importing 36,000 cooks, waiters, hotel managers, bartenders, and other skilled workers under a new work visa Australia agreement to fill vacancies; with another 56,000 needed by 2015, according to Immigration Minister Chris Bowen.

The vacancies are caused by a number of factors; chief amongst which is the reluctance of Australians to do “menial” jobs, as well as Australians moving from the hospitality industry into higher paying mining and resources jobs.

Experts say that due to the fact that mining jobs are high-paying, these have lured young Australian workers from traditional fields such as retail and hospitality, while others would rather go on the dole than do certain jobs themselves. However, with the tourism industry responsible for $35 billion worth of annual income to Australia, the government needs to act quickly to address the situation, particularly in regional areas.

Immigration Minister Chris Bowen stated that a template labor agreement will be developed to help to ease labor and skills pressures by improving the ability of the tourism and hospitality industry to attract and retain labor in some of the occupations identified by the industry as being in critical shortage.

Under a new federal plan, tourism and hospitality employers would be allowed to bring in workers on a two to three year Australian work visa similar to the 457 Australia working visa program widely used in the mining sector. This agreement would cover waiters, chefs, bar attendants, hotel managers, and other occupations which are hard to fill locally and are identified by the industry as being in critical shortage, or may be ineligible under other Australia skilled visa migration programs.

Mr. Bowen further said that Australian employers would need to demonstrate they are doing their best to employ and train domestic workers and paying market rates in order to participate in the new agreement. Once approved to participate, employers would now be able to nominate workers for temporary skilled subclass 457 Australian working visa using the template, enabling workers to be granted Australian skilled visa where they meet the requirements.

It has been noted that there is a black market of illegal workers that extend across businesses including restaurants and general laboring.

While hospitality is only one of a number of areas experiencing a lack of Australian workers struggling to fill vacancies, some sectors are being shunned altogether.

Experts say high-paying mining jobs are luring young Australian workers from traditional fields such as retail and hospitality, while others would rather go on the dole than muck in and do certain jobs themselves.

“I hate to say it but there seems to be a sense of entitlement among younger Australians,” Tourism Accommodation Australia boss Rodger Powell said.

“They believe jobs in the service industry are too menial or too low paid and they have been brought up to believe they are destined for something better instead of starting from the bottom and working their way up as generations did before them.”

FORGET 2012 being the year of the dragon. It may well be the year of the farmer.

Food prices are skyrocketing across the world. In the past, surges in world grain prices largely stemmed from drought or floods; now they're much more likely to be the result of demand outstripping supply, spurred by unbridled population growth in Asia, the boom in the middle classes in China and India, and prime arable land being devoured by urbanisation. The depletion of China's main aquifers has led to a decrease in grain production, turning China into a net importer, while India - which depends on ground water for 70 per cent of its irrigation needs - is facing a potential disaster in the next 20 years with collapsing water tables.

The picture isn't any prettier in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia will rely on imports of wheat by 2016 after the government called an end to irrigated wheat as it fights to save its ancient fossil aquifers. Egypt, once the bread- basket of the Roman Empire, is now the world's largest importer of wheat. There were food riots in Algeria last year, and most of the Horn of Africa was in famine.

 ...So what does this mean for Australia - a nation that already exports two-thirds of its food supply - in the coming decades? Export earnings from agriculture are expected to reach a record high in 2011-12 - a taste, no doubt, of things to come.
