Governments must speed process for foreign hires
Finding and keeping workers continues to be a major challenge facing employers. The restaurant and hospitality sector estimates it’s heading into a new year without 20% of the staff needed.
To try and help ease the crunch, the BC Restaurant and Food Services Association has asked the Provincial government to exempt BC employers from requiring a Labour Market Impact Assessment for the next two years. The Chamber supports this move as well as a request that the federal government speed up the process to allow foreign workers to come to BC.
