For Employers

What is a Labour Market Impact Assessment?

​

A Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) is a document that an employer in Canada may need to get before hiring a foreign worker.

​

A positive LMIA will show that there is a need for a foreign worker to fill the job. It will also show that no Canadian worker or permanent resident is available to do the job. A positive LMIA is sometimes called a confirmation letter.

If the employer needs an LMIA, they must apply for one.

Once an employer gets the LMIA, the worker can apply for a work permit.

​

To apply for a work permit, a worker needs

• a job offer letter

• a contract

• a copy of the LMIA, and

• the LMIA number

 

How We Help Employers

How to offer a full-time job to support a skilled worker’s immigration to Canada, hire a foreign worker or offer a paid internship to a permanent resident or new citizen of Canada.

 

Canada's Labour Shortage

Skills shortages in some key Canadian industries are forcing companies to compete for the best talent. Canadian employers can hire foreign workers to meet their labour needs when they are not able to find Canadians or permanent residents to fill job vacancies.

We make a difference in our client’s business by connecting them with the appropriate candidates who have the talent and ambitions to drive the business forward.
