Essential Work Visa Types for the Australian Mining Industry: What You Need to Know

The main work visa types required for the Australian Mining & Resources Industry are primarily focused on skilled workers who possess the qualifications and experience necessary for various roles in this sector. Below are the key visa types commonly utilised:

1. Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482)

• Purpose: This visa allows employers to sponsor skilled foreign workers to fill positions they are unable to fill with local labor.

• Duration: The visa can be granted for up to four years, depending on the occupation and the applicant’s circumstances.

• Eligibility: Applicants must have a job offer from an approved Australian employer and meet the skill and qualification requirements for the nominated occupation, which must be listed on the relevant skills occupation list.

2. Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186)

• Purpose: This is a permanent residency visa for skilled workers nominated by an Australian employer.

• Eligibility: Applicants must be nominated by an eligible employer and meet specific skill, qualification, and experience requirements. They typically need to be under 45 years old at the time of application.

• Eligibility: Applicants must submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) and be invited to apply based on their skills and qualifications, which must align with an occupation on Australia’s Skilled Occupation List.

• Duration: This is a permanent visa.

4. Skilled Nominated Visa (subclass 190)

• Purpose: This visa is for skilled workers who are nominated by a state or territory government to live and work in Australia as permanent residents.

• Eligibility: Like the subclass 189 visa, applicants must submit an EOI and receive an invitation to apply based on their skills, qualifications, and state or territory nomination.

• Duration: This is a permanent visa.

5. Regional Sponsored Migration Scheme (subclass 187)

• Purpose: This visa is for skilled workers nominated by an employer in regional Australia, allowing them to work in a specified regional area.

• Eligibility: Applicants must be nominated by an eligible employer and meet the skill and qualification requirements for the occupation.

• Duration: This is a pathway to permanent residency.

Conclusion

The Temporary Skill Shortage Visa (subclass 482) is the most commonly used visa type for short-term employment in the Australian Mining Industry.

While the Employer Nomination Scheme (subclass 186) and other skilled visas provide pathways to permanent residency. Applicants should assess their individual circumstances, qualifications, and potential sponsorship opportunities to determine the best visa option for their needs.
It’s advisable to consult with migration professionals or the Department of Home Affairs for guidance specific to your situation.
