Australian visas for pharmacists to be fast-tracked to support troubled vaccine rollout

This would result in priority visa processing for pharmacists across the hospital, retail and industrial sectors. Currently, just over 16 per cent of the population in Australia has been fully vaccinated, with around 11 million vaccines administered across the country.  But the nation s rollout has faced delays over the limited availability of Pfizer doses and changes in medical advice around the AstraZeneca vaccine.   The government says more pharmacies are set to join the nation s rollout as demand grows for vaccinations due to the increased risk posed by the highly contagious Delta variant.   READ MORE Last week, Health Minister Greg Hunt said 118 community pharmacies were providing vaccines across the country, with the number to increase to 470 by the end of the month. 

Proposed new laws to crack down on exploitation of migrant workers

Share on Twitter Migrant workers would be better protected from being pressured into exploitative work under new laws to crackdown on unscrupulous employers.  A new bill has been unveiled for consultation by the federal government, proposing new criminal offences and civil penalties to safeguard workers on visas. The government is attempting to present a firm stance on stamping out the exploitation ahead of the introduction of a new agricultural visa.   READ MORE Immigration Minister Alex Hawke said the proposed bill sends a strong message that wage underpayment and other exploitative practices are unacceptable and will not be tolerated. “We know the majority of Australian businesses and employers do the right thing but there are still a small number of unscrupulous employers who find ways to exploit migrants,” he said.
