Accredited Employer Work

The document discusses replacing six existing work visas in New Zealand with a single streamlined Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV). The AEWV will have three checks - an employer check to confirm accreditation, a job check to ensure fair pay and employment terms, and a migrant worker check of character, identity, health and skills. It provides timeframes for further information about the job and migrant checks, fee confirmation, and the application process opening in late 2021 ahead of the new AEWV becoming mandatory on November 1, 2021. The changes could provide opportunities for Labour Industry Association (LIA) involvement through webinars and further policy details.
