457 Visa Review Jobs List to be examined

The government last week began the first review of the list in three years, with business and ­unions polarised on what is needed. Among the 650 strong list are lawyers, electricians, antique dealers, funeral workers and print journalists are among 650 occupations on the Consolidated Sponsored Occupations List, which are under review by the Ministerial Advisory Council on Skilled Migration. There is a common belief that the list needs to be reviewed, as there is no common reasoning as to why some occupations are on the list.

The majority of people that are granted 457 visa’s are professionals, a well-balanced migration program will generate a positive outcome. There is no evidence to back up on economic or labour based needs as to why occupations on the list and the review has been predominately welcomed.

There should be a needs based review as simply changing the occupations on the list really wont alter anything, there needs to be further investigation into where skills shortages are occurring and the list needs to be updated according to that. Where skilled migrants are replacing Australian workers, this should be looked at and tackled.
