imported workers

Is this right or necessary?

Shouldn't we be asking why?

is there any oversight?
do they work under different awards to the locals?
do they get paid less?
where is their benefit?

The companies are not doing it to just to help foreigners

EMPLOYERS have recruited 37,620 foreign managers, professionals and tradespeople this year despite a growing pool of 191,000 unemployed Australians qualified for the same jobs.

Official data reveals that while 67,000 Australian technicians and tradies search for work, employers have brought in 10,210 foreign trade workers on 457 work visas during the first nine months of this financial year.
