Companies that do not have internal immigration advisors run the risk of being non-compliant, without having any prior knowledge of it. A finding of non-compliance from a government audit can lead to consequences including monetary penalties and in serious cases, a temporary or permanent ban on the company’s ability to hire foreign workers. Regardless of the penalty issued, all companies found to be non-compliant will also be listed publicly on the government’s non-compliant employers list. Whether you are a company that already has temporary foreign workers or you need to explore opportunities to recruit and retain skilled labour from outside of Canada, we can help!
