Canada Implements New LMIA Wage ThresholdsEffective July 17, Canada has introduced updated wage thresholds for the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) process. These changes are part of broader efforts to ensure that foreign workers are hired at fair, market-competitive wages. The new thresholds are designed to protect both domestic and international workers by preventing wage suppression in various sectors. Employers looking to hire through the Temporary Foreign Worker Program must now ensure their compensation packages align with these revised standards. Businesses are encouraged to review the updated criteria immediately to ensure their ongoing and future recruitment processes remain compliant. The government maintains that these measures are essential for a balanced and sustainable labour market. |
