Canada Recognized Employer Work Permit Program (REP) has announced
the expansion of its eligible list to include 84 new occupations, allowing
Canadian employers to streamline the process of hiring skilled foreign workers
across various industries.
It's now easier for organizations to locate the ideal fit for their needs with the program's coverage ranging from computer geniuses to healthcare heroes.
The pilot initiative, which was first designed to target the
agriculture industry, has now expanded to cover 84 more jobs in a variety of
areas, such as skilled trades, engineering, and healthcare. The increase, which
permits REP-eligible firms to engage temporary workers for specialized tasks
such as livestock labourers, harvesting labourers, specialized livestock workers,
and nursery and greenhouse labourers, underscores Canada's commitment to
fulfilling the demands of a dynamic job market.
The list of professions that Canadian Employment and Social
Development Canada (ESDC) now offers includes engineering managers, architects,
cooks, retail salespeople, healthcare professionals, and construction workers.
Employers can submit an application by email or through the online LMIA portal
for the REP program. Benefits include expedited processing of LMIA
applications, shortened turnaround times, and improved Job Bank reputation. The
International Mobility Program (IMP), the Temporary Foreign Worker Program
(TFWP), and the Express Entry System are further choices. The TFWP fills
temporary labour demands in a variety of industries, while the REP program
provides a wide range of skills and knowledge. Employers may also use the
Express Entry System for permanent residency and the International Mobility
Program for cultural exchange initiatives.
