Canada LMIA – Employer-Driven Pathway to Work in Canada
Canada’s Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is an employer-driven program that allows businesses to hire foreign workers when no suitable Canadian candidates are available. Before offering a job, employers must obtain an LMIA approval, proving that hiring internationally will positively impact the Canadian labor market.
With an LMIA-backed job offer, foreign workers can apply for a Canadian work permit and in some cases, use the offer to strengthen permanent residency applications. This program is particularly beneficial for candidates with in-demand skills across industries like healthcare, construction, agriculture, transportation, and technology.
The LMIA ensures a fair process by balancing employer needs with opportunities for foreign workers, offering a reliable pathway to both temporary work and long-term settlement in Canada.
