What happens if a recruited worker fails to perform or leaves?
We take pride in our rigorous vetting process, but to provide you with peace of mind, we offer a 3-month Employee Performance Guarantee. If a worker’s performance doesn’t meet your standards within this period, we will provide a replacement candidate at no additional recruitment fee. This commitment underscores our dedication to sourcing the best foreign workers for your needs
3-Month Employee Performance Guarantee
We stand behind the quality of our candidates. Because our vetting process for foreign workers is so rigorous, we rarely need to use this guarantee—but it is there to give you total peace of mind.

How much do recruitment agencies charge and who pays the fees?
Generally International Recruitment Agencies charge a percentage of the worker’s annual salary; however, to give you control over your budget, Workvantage offers tiered pricing. You can choose our Basic package for strict LMIA compliance, Standard for added candidate pre-screening, and Premium package for an all-inclusive experience that handles sourcing via foreign agencies, work permits, and arrival. As per Canadian law, the employer is responsible for paying recruitment fees.

What are the risks and obligations of hiring foreign workers?
Deciding to hire foreign workers is a powerful strategy to stabilize a workforce and access skilled talent. Canadian employers gain loyal, long-term employees motivated to help their business succeed. However, this privilege comes with strict government obligations, such as adhering to prevailing wage requirements, ensuring workplace safety, and covering recruitment costs (it is illegal to charge workers).
Compliance with the Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP) is critical to avoid fines or audits. Rest assured, hiring foreign workers is a great decision when managed correctly. Workvantage acts as a compliance partner, managing the complex paperwork and regulations to allow employers to focus on the growth and productivity the new team will bring.
