저번주에 고용주인증 주요 정보라고 해서 공지가 뜬 내용 입니다.

아주 중요한 내용은 아니지만 몇가지가 눈에 들어오네요.

그중 고용주인증을 승인해 주고나서도 다시 전체 16% 가량을 사후 점검한다는 내용이 있는데.. 개인적으로 뉴질랜드 고용주 분들 엄청 힘드실것으로 보이네요.

고용주인증 할때도 돈들어.. 1년후 연장할때도 돈들어.. 광고할때도 돈들어.. 잡체크 할때도 돈들어..

거기에다 받아놓고 다시 고용주인증 체크 당해서 문제될수도 있기에 불안해...등등..

Key information and statistics

Accreditation applications opened on 23 May 2022, Job Check applications opened on 20 June 2022 and work visa applications opened on 4 July 2022.

As at 2 July 2024 Immigration New Zealand (INZ) has approved 122,378 AEWV applications, and there are 35,636 accredited employers.

-> 올해 7월까지 고용주인증 워크비자 승인은 12만건이고 승인된 고용주는 35,000여개 입니다.

On 7 April 2024, changes were announced to the Accredited Employer Work Visa scheme. These include:

Introducing an English language requirement for migrants applying for low skilled ANZSCO level 4 and 5 roles.

A minimum skills and work experience threshold for most AEWV roles.

For roles that fall into the ANZSCO level 4 and 5, employers will need to engage with Work and Income before approval to bring in migrants will be granted.

Reducing the maximum continuous stay for most ANZSCO level 4 and 5 roles from 5 years to 3 years.

-> Skill 4~5는 영어점수 제출해야 하고, 관련경력 필요하고, 워크앤인컴의 이주예정자 승인이 필요해 졌다. 그리고 기존 최장 5년짜리에서 3년짜리로 워크비자 기간이 줄어들었다.

Disestablishing the franchisee accreditation category and for these businesses to apply to bring in workers from overseas through the standard, high-volume, or triangular employment accreditation.

Changes to the Accredited Employer Work Visa (AEWV)

Accreditation process

Before employers can invite a worker to apply for an AEWV they must apply to us for employer accreditation, advertise the role if they need to, and apply for a Job Check.

Under the AEWV there are a range of verification steps at the application process through the accreditation, Job Check and work visa steps, as well as post-accreditation checks.

We constantly review and adjust our settings to ensure they are fit for purpose and strike the right balance between bringing in the migrants that New Zealand needs and protecting the integrity of the immigration system.

The accreditation process

Post-accreditation checks

Post-accreditation checks can occur at any time. We aim to check about 16% of accredited employers each year. As part of the application process, employers are advised there may be follow-up checks to ensure the undertakings and declarations they make during the application are correct and they are a good employer.

Meeting your AEWV accredited employer obligations

The 16% of post-accreditation checks we undertake are made up from a combination of:

random selection

targeted checks on a sample of all accredited employer types

all controlling third party business models

any businesses that have been referred to us through a complaint or issue raised.

Post-accreditation checks are a routine process introduced as part of the scheme. They are not related to investigations into employers of potential concern involving migrant workers holding an AEWV.

We expect employers to take their responsibilities seriously and comply with AEWV conditions, and there are penalties for employers who do not comply with employment or immigration laws.

-> 고용주인이 된 업체 일 지라도 승인후 매년 16% 가량의 업체에 대해서 사후 체크할 계획이 있다.

그업체는 랜덤으로 고르거나, 고용주인증 유형에 따른 샘플링 업체, 서드파티 사업체, 컨플레인된 업체들 위주로..

As at 2 July 2024

INZ has undertaken 4,075 post-accreditation checks on 2,983 employers. An additional 439 are underway.

The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) has received 3,333 complaints against accredited employers. This number only indicates an allegation involving an accredited employer has been received, not whether the allegation can be substantiated.

There are currently 277 active investigations on 267 accredited employers underway (as some are duplicates).

381 employers have had their accreditation revoked and 62 have had their accreditation suspended.

32 employers are under assessment to have their accreditation revoked and there are no employers currently under assessment to have their accreditation suspended. Revocations and suspensions can occur due to a range of reasons, and a number are due to liquidation.

-> 7월기준으로 3000며명의 고용주들에 대해서 총 4000여건의 고용주인증을 사후 체크 했고 추가로 400여건을 진행중이다.

-> 고용주에 대한 컨플레인은 3000여건 접수 되었다.

-> 380여개의 고용주인증이 취소 되었고 60여개의 고용주인증은 정지되었는데 대부분의 사유는 사업체의 청산 이다.
