The Government has announced a new immigration pathway for essential seasonal workers.
It has created a new subcategory of the Specific Purpose Work Visa - to help employers in upcoming seasonal peaks.
Roles must pay at least $29.66 per hour, and offer at least 30 hours each week.
EMA's Alan McDonald says these changes will be welcomed by the business sector.
