| Hi John, The surprise move by the Turnbull Government to scrap the 457 visa program has prompted responses from both sides of the fence voicing either strong support from workers’ advocates or strong criticism from employers and recruiters.
The head of a well-known Australian accounting software company has slammed the government's move to get rid of the 457 temporary worker visa system, saying it could "severely hinder the growth of the nation’s tech industry". But a group represeting workers has praised the move.
