South West Australia may recruit workers from Bali
The Australian Hotels Association says the South West of Australia could host hundreds of hospitality workers from Bali who may be recruited to Western Australia within months.
The Association is currently working with an Indonesian recruitment firm and the Department of Immigration to help fill the chronic labour shortage in the industry, with Association GM Paul Brockschlager saying that although Perth will have first preference to the workers, areas of high tourism like the south west would not be far behind.
He added, “The entire state of Western Australia has world-class tourism facilities and the last thing we want to see happen is you have overseas visitors or intrastate visitors and they’re pulling into some of these great regional towns and they can’t get a drink and they can’t get a meal because there’s no staff to wait or serve them”.
