Temporary work hours relaxation for International students in Australia

Australia is the most sought after destination for multiple students because of the countless opportunities, impeccable learning, and hassle-free visa process. Amongst the processed visas of VideshWin, the best Overseas education consultants in Hyderabad, Australia stands in the third spot, preceded by the US and the UK.

As recently announced by the Prime Minister to not close the border gates again due to Covid, Australia has moved a step up and made relaxations to the work-hours for student visa holders to support themselves.

To make it precise, the Department of Home Affairs and the Australian Border Force has taken a step to involve a flexible approach to student visa holders, including those who work beyond their limitations, only in the sectors mentioned below, according to the Department.

If you hold a student visa in Australia and work in the following sectors, you can work more than 40 hours a fortnight.

• Working for an aged care Approved Provider or Commonwealth-funded aged care service provider with a RACS ID or a      NAPS ID (including if you are engaged by a labour-hire company or recruitment agency)
• Working for a registered National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provider (including if you are engaged by a       labour-hire company or recruitment agency)
• Enrolled in a healthcare-related course, you are supporting the health effort against COVID-19, as directed by health        officials.
• Working in the agriculture sector
• Working in the tourism and hospitality sector
• Working in a supermarket, or associated distribution facility, located in an area impacted by COVID-19 lockdown      restrictions for the duration of the lockdown.

So the students residing and studying in Australia can work for more than forty hours if you study in the mentioned sectors. Are you already in Australia or planning to migrate? Let VideshWin, the best overseas education consultants in Hyderabad for Australia, help you out!
