ASGA Webinar - How to recruit overseas workers

Australian Sign & Graphics Association (ASGA) will run a webinar, Recruiting Overseas Workers on August 30, at 3:00 pm AEST.

Covering the overseas recruitment process, visa and employment contract considerations, the webinar will also answer commonly asked questions, such as ‘how long does the process take?’ and ‘what happens after the visa expires’?

“With many sign businesses struggling to recruit staff at the moment and no magic solutions to fix the current labour shortage, this webinar is likely to generate a lot of interest,” said ASGA President Mick Harrold.

Moderated by Vernon Kingman, from Kingman Strategies, the webinar content will be presented by Warwick Ryan and Simonne Pengelly of Hickson Lawyers and Noelene Murray of Perdaman Global Services.

“The ASGA Executive Board is working hard to respond to the labour shortage issue, with many of us facing the same predicament. Recruiting apprentice candidates at the career expos has been a key strategy to date which we believe will see results in the medium long-term future, but we recognise that hiring skilled overseas workers provides a much more immediate solution,” continued Harrold.

“Many businesses are reluctant to go down the path of recruiting overseas workers because it seems too hard, but many that have taken the leap of faith have had success here, such as webinar moderator, Vernon Kingman. Our aim with this webinar is to let the experienced players in this field break down the steps involved and answer the many questions that people have on this topic.”

“Even if those attending the webinar decide not to go down this path at this time, they will come away knowing the approximate costs involved and who and where they can turn to for advice and assistance if the need arises later,” concluded Harrold.

This webinar is free for ASGA members and $33 inc GST for non-members. Registration is available on the ASGA website at: https://signs.org.au/Events-and-News/Current-Events.
