Australia is the most favourite destination for skilled migrants from all parts of the world, including some of the most advanced nations in Europe and the Americas. Australia has achieved this distinction because it offers probably the best work-life balance to its mainstream workforce along with the best healthcare and globally recognised education facilities to their families.
Australia has an aging population and that combined with a negative birth rate, there is an acute shortage of skilled workers across a wide range of occupations. Hence, the Australian government offers a well planned and executed General Skilled Migration Program (GSM) to meet the skill shortages in manufacturing, housing, healthcare, information technology, telecommunications and broader service sector to grow its economy. The GSM Program consists of permanent, provisional and temporary visa options to empower the federal and state/territory governments to attract the skilled workers needed in their respective jurisdiction to meet its goals in economic growth and global trade.
The skilled migrants arriving in Australia under the GSM Program have a very high participation rate in the Australian workforce ensuring an equitable distribution of skills across the country and development of regional areas. The regional centres not only benefit from the new migrants’ skills but they also help attract international investment bringing more prosperity to the local communities.
