Upcoming changes to policy
Friday, 3 July 2009
A number of policy changes become effective on 27 July 2009.
Key changes include:
- A new policy called Supplementary Seasonal Employment (SSE) has been established and replaces the Transitioning to Recognised Seasonal Employer (TRSE) policy. Some RSE changes have resulted from the introduction of SSE policy. For more detailed information on these changes see ‘latest news’ item: ‘New seasonal work policy for horticulture and viticulture businesses and amendments to Recognised Seasonal Employer policy’.
- A special Visitor policy has been introduced for work permit holders who have received a dismissal notice within the 90-day trial period.
- Essential Skills work policy has been amended to limit the visa and permit length to one year for lower skilled workers. Additionally a note has been added to state that self-employment does not meet the Essential Skills policy objectives.

Working holidaymakers from Canada, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom and Taiwan may study more than one course not exceeding six months in total.
