Now Irish Workers Can Stay Longer in Canada

The Canadian government has just given a massive Christmas present to foreign workers who want to spend more than four years in the country. They’ve cancelled their previous rule that stated a foreign worker could not spend more than four cumulative years working in Canada without staying out of the country for four years. Under the ‘four in, four out’ rule, once a worker had spent a total of four years in Canada, she was ineligible to work there for a period of four years. The rule was introduced in April 2011. Effective immediately, it’s gone.

The Canadian government is working to fine tune it’s guest worker regulations to balance promoting employment for Canadians with providing stability to foreign workers. They are capping the percentage of low-wage foreign workers in some situations to boost employment for locals. Employers are also now required to make an effort to recruit from groups that under-represented in employment.

What Does It Means for Irish Workers in Canada?

While further regulations are expected, this change means that Irish workers in Canada can relax. They are no longer living with a deadline hanging over their heads. It also means that Irish people hoping to work in Canada can make longer terms plans, based on their employment opportunities. They will be able to settle in more knowing that their stay can exceed four years. This has a huge knock-on effect on how people plan their time there. Some will be inclined to ship their personal effects because they will be making a home there for longer.

It is wonderful news for those who wish to look for work abroad but are put off the UK by Brexit or the US by the uncertainty around immigration in light of the recent election results. Being able to stay longer and not have the duration of one’s stay there limited by legislation makes Canada even more appealing. And it is a pretty appealing destination!

A sprawling country offering both vibrant cities and pristine wilderness, Canada offers much more than secure employment. Widely considered world leaders in common sense and good manners, Canadians generally appear to be wonderful neighbours and work colleagues. Who wouldn’t want to stay more than four years?
