Certain Change in the seasonal occupation visa for New Zealand

People who wish to immigrate to New Zealand on the seasonal occupation basis will have to stick to the policy of recognised seasonal employment which would be practised by the employers. Many employers wish to woo foreign workers to get a maximum benefit from their work will now have to implement the same. But the policy by which an employer can call foreign workers to live seasonally in New Zealand is going to have some amendments with the introduction of a new- New Zealand work permit, mentioned the New Zealand Immigration Minister Jonathan Coleman.
The new- New Zealand work visa would be called ‘Supplementary Seasonal Employment Permit’ and would be granted to some foreign workers who are already living in New Zealand on the employment basis. The visa would be granted for a period of 6 months and they would be able to move around SSE approved employers. People would be able to move around and pick up a job of ‘picking fruits’ or seasonal things during the harvest season. The wages given would be the same as those to New Zealand residents, states the new rules. Apart from that the workers would have to have a health insurance which would be organized by the SSE employers minimizing the burden on the employees. The new plan would not put any restrictions and would attract workers to work in New Zealand under seasonal harvesting.
