Temporary Visa Holders in Aged Care, Disability And Health Services

Many temporary visa holders in New Zealand work in the Aged Care, Disability & Health industry.

Whilst some hold employer sponsored visas, many more hold working holiday visas, student visas etc.

These types of visas can be more difficult for employers to keep on top of. For instance, student visa holders can only work for 20 (or 25) hours a fortnight. 

Why Should My Business Check Visas for Employees?

Employers should check visa status for all non-citizen workers both before and during employment. New offences and fines were introduced in the Worker Protection (Migrant and Other Employees) Act 2023 legislation.

If staff are detected working in breach of visa conditions or without a valid visa, the employer can face penalties. Penalties include fines and bans from employing non-citizen workers.
