How does an employer hire a temporary foreign worker?
An employer must first prove to federal Human Resources and Social Development (HRSDC) officials that it has tried to hire an employee in Canada. If officials agree the company has tried and there truly is a shortage, they will issue a Positive Labour Market Opinion, which in turn allows the employer to go abroad to bring in workers.
