Information about current market rates
is provided by relevant gover
Government
departments with expert knowledge of the
types of employment concerned. In the
case of domestic helpers, the Labour
Department surveys the salaries offered
to local employees, and informs the
Director of Immigration of current
salary levels. It is not the normal
practice to consult external
organisations about these matters which
are part of immigration entry policy.
The purpose of announcing publicly the
current salary levels for domestic
helpers is to assist the large numbers
of employers who present employment
contracts to the Immigration Department
to obtain speedy approval.
