Under a newly signed agreement, Australia will welcome 1,000 Vietnamese agricultural workers in 2024 as part of the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility (PALM) scheme. This development follows the cessation of the Agriculture Visa, necessitating the inclusion of Vietnamese workers through the PALM framework.
To qualify, candidates must surpass the age of 21, demonstrate English proficiency, meet health criteria, and have requisite skills and experience. The arrangement aims to address labor shortages within Australia's agricultural sector, particularly in horticulture, which alone demands an annual influx of 3,000 workers. The initiative not only aims to fulfill the labor market's needs but also offers Vietnamese workers the potential to earn significant income from regular and additional work hours.
