据2013年06月13日中国新闻网报道，联邦移民部长奥康纳(Brendan O'Connor)说，按工党改革457临时技术工人签证的方案，约40%雇主在申请引进外劳时，将面临强制性的劳动市场需求检试。
　　
奥康纳日前向国会提交的457签证改革立法议案，受到工商界批评，指责它增加聘请外国技术劳工的成本费用。
　　
该立法议案要求企业在提出聘请外劳时，被要求进行一项“本地工人检测”，它要求先登6个月广告招聘本地工人，在招不到本地工人的情况下，才能申请引进外国技术劳工。它还要求把公司把每年用于职工的开支，2%用于培训。来自公平工作署的300名督察，将调查引进技术外劳的企业，是否有滥用这项签证计划之嫌。
　　
奥康纳说，这些措施将能确保本地工人有最优先机会获得工作，“该签证计划的40%左右，主要是技术相对较低的二级和三级技术劳工签证，须进行本地劳工市场检测”。雇主团体，包括澳洲总商会，澳洲工业总会和澳洲矿产与金属商会说，这一检测将会增加聘请技术外劳的成本费用和文牍工作。

今天收到ACS的通知，对于职业评估中工作经验算法的权威解释如下：

Dear XXXX, 


Australian Computer Society Skill Assessment Result Letters

All Skill Assessment Result Letters issued by the Australian Computer Society report on a date (mm/yy) of when an applicant becomes ‘skilled’.

This date is the time the applicant meets the requirements as detailed in the Summary of Criteria

Some examples demonstrating how this is applied in practice include:

· The date specified for skilled employment for a Bachelor degree or above that is not closely related to the nominated occupation is upon completion of 4 years’ experience. 

· For a Bachelor degree or above that is closely related to the nominated occupation, it is upon completion of 2 years’ experience . For the 2 year requirement this must be in the past 10 years or if 4 years are required this can be in any time period, whichever is earlier.

· For qualifications below a Bachelor degree or for a Bachelor degree or above with a minor in computing, the skilled employment date will be upon completion of 5 years in the past 10 years, or 6 years in any time period.

If the date specified for skilled employment is earlier than the completion of the qualification; the date will be noted as the completion date of the qualification.

If the applicant has multiple qualifications, the date will be based on whichever results in the earliest date.

Please note, only employment completed after the date the applicant has met the ACS requirements will be counted as skilled employment.

西澳州政府日前宣布，从2013年6月起西澳州担保流程将进行调整。申请人需要首先递交EOI申请之后，州担保会给合格的申请人发送州担保邀请，然后申请人才能登陆西澳州担保网站提交州担保申请。相对于目前申请人只要满足最低要求即可直接提交州担保申请来说，未来西澳政府将有更大的余地来选择合适的申请人
