FEctions COVID-19 Pandemic – Immigration Situation Overview This is a summary of the confirmed immigration restrictions and/or concessions that global jurisdictions are currently imposing in an effort to contain the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). It includes: (1) the operational status of government authorities; (2) travel restrictions; (3) entry, quarantine, and health requirements; and (4) government concessions. Where a jurisdiction is not listed, Fragomen cannot reliably confirm it is currently imposing restrictions or concessions of this type. Important Notes: The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak is a rapidly changing event; this summary is for reference only. It does not attempt to cover other developments that may be relevant to travelers, such as airline route cancellations, the closing of consular posts, or national travel advisories. Individuals considering travel should consult their country’s consular posts and seek case-specific advice from their travel and/or immigration providers. Employers whose staff have moved to remote work arrangements may need to complete additional labor law requirements, such as employment contract amendments. European Union Travel Note: Per EU guidance, residents of Australia, Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, New Zealand, Rwanda, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand have been ‘greenlisted’, meaning such travelers are advised to be permitted to enter EU Member States. Nationals of China might also be permitted entry if EU travelers will be allowed to reciprocally enter Mainland China. EU authorities advise EU countries to coordinate their travel restrictions to ensure more reliable and predictable travel planning across the European Union.

    “NO MORE” Ending Sex-Trafficking In Canada Report of the National Task Force on Sex Trafficking of Women and Girls in Canada commissioned by the Canadian Women’s Foundation Fall 2014 2 Report of the National Task Force on Sex Trafficking of Women and Girls in Canada “ True equality for women and girls will not be achieved until all forms of violence, including sexual exploitation and sex trafficking, are eradicated. This will require a broad perspective and action taken in all sectors and in a wide range of policy areas. The results will reflect a stronger nation whose political, social and economic inequalities are minimized and where human rights and the possibility for everyone to succeed to their greatest potential is achieved.” The Task Force on Trafficking of Women and Girls in Canada Report of the National Task Force 3 on Sex Trafficking of Women and Girls in Canada This report summarizes the findings and recommendations of the Task Force on Trafficking of Women and Girls in Canada. The Task Force was created and funded by the Canadian Women’s Foundation to investigate the nature and extent of sex trafficking in Canada, and to recommend a national anti-trafficking strategy to inform the work of the Canadian Women’s Foundation. The findings and recommendations contained in this report were developed to assist the Canadian Women’s Foundation in creating its own five-year national anti-trafficking strategy. It is also hoped the recommendations will inform and offer guidance to other stakeholders working in this area. The Canadian Women’s Foundation strategy to end sex trafficking is available at www.canadianwomen.org/trafficking The Canadian Women’s Foundation’s work on sex trafficking in Canada was made possible by a generous donation from the Estate of Ann Southam, a celebrated music composer and member of the Order of Canada, to support its work with women and girls in Canada.
  • 3. Accommodation Services

    3. Accommodation Services

    11 3. Accommodation services When one travels to another city or country, one usually has different needs and demands for the destination one is travelling to. Trying to meet these needs and demands is what comprises the tourism industry. The tourism industry can be divided into main sectors; hospitality, attractions and event, transport, travel organizers and intermediaries and destination organization sectors. All of these sectors can be thought of as range of businesses and organizations involved in delivering the tourism product and the travel experience. Hotels of course are a part of the hospitality sector and as such are major essential supply components of tourism. (Middleton, Fyall & Morgan 2009:10-11) A hotel is a place that offers its facilities and services for sale. The services can vary from just one to various combinations that can all be thought of as a part of the total market concept of the hotel. The basic total market concept consists of five elements as shown in figure 1. Figure 1 Market concept of a hotel. (Medlik & Ingram 2000:14) 12 Location is usually the main element, thus being in the center of the market concept circle, that the visitor takes into account when choosing a hotel. Location places the hotel geographically into a certain area; for example near a particular city or village. And if one wants to go to that specific city one has to choose the hotel within that area. Where the hotel is situated denotes the accessibility and convenience of the location, attractiveness of the surroundings and other factors that the visitor sees as appealing when choosing a hotel.

    Vision for the Future Overseas Labour.Indd

    VISION FOR THE FUTURE OF FARMING ACCESS TO A COMPETENT AND FLEXIBLE WORKFORCE Delivering for farmers and for the public INTRODUCTION The issue of immigration has loomed large in the debate over the UK’s membership of the EU. Following the decision to leave that was taken in the referendum of June 2016, we will soon establish new arrangements for controlling our borders, based on an expectation that immigration into the UK will ultimately be reduced. The agricultural and horticultural sectors, and indeed the wider food industry, will fi nd themselves particularly impacted by these changes. Farming relies on a large number of overseas workers, primarily from the EU, who have been able to come to the UK and take up work – both seasonal and permanent – under the principle of free movement of labour within the Single Market. With Brexit that movement will be curtailed. But it is critical that farming’s ability to produce a safe and aff ordable supply of food here in the UK is not similarly reduced. There are a number of aspects to this challenge. We will continue to look at ways of improving the ef ciency and productivity of our industry, harnessing technology and where possible adopting automated processes which reduce the reliance on labour. We will continue to work with other organisations in improving the appeal of agriculture as off ering a high-skilled, enjoyable and well rewarded career path, attracting more of our domestic workforce. But we will also continue to press the case for access to a competent and flexible workforce that meets the needs of a diverse farm sector that has signifi cant requirements for both permanent and seasonal labour, and for higher and lower-skilled workers.

    Exploring Working Holiday Makers' Motivations in Australia

    Exploring Working Holiday Makers’ Motivations in Australia An investigation on the factors influencing Working Holiday Makers’ decision to engage with the 88 days of specified regional work criteria Martina Frappa International Migration and Ethnic Relations Bachelor Thesis 15 credits Spring 2019: IM245L Supervisor: Henrik Emilsson Wordcount: 13,155 Abstract This study investigates the reasons why Working Holiday Makers (WHMs) in Australia decide to complete the 88 days of specified regional work to obtain a Second Working Holiday (WH) visa. The research follows a qualitative approach via the use of semi-structed interviews on a sample of fifteen current or former WHMs. The resulting data are analysed in connection to the theoretical framework of migrants’ role in bifurcated labour markets, with a further focus on the micro-level neoclassical economics principles and the concept of self-improvement through hardship. It is argued that the 88-day scheme represented for all the interviewees a form of investment to achieve a greater goal. The findings revealed that, while only a few completed the 88 days driven by the desire to achieve self-actualisation, most of the informants were driven by an economic rationale: some focused on the short-term financial benefits of a further year of work in the country, while others planned to use their Second WH as a pathway towards permanent residency.
