IN SOURCED

IN SOURCED

In-Sourcing better than Out-Sourcing ?

At least the Australian Government seems to think so.

Why else would it “ import “ from India ( under its migration scheme), 450  Plumbers / Masons / Carpenters / Electricians / Mechanics etc ?

These highly skilled “ tradesmen “ were in-sourced from the Industrial Training Institute at Aundh ( India ) which has been training the students since last year for a certification that is recognized by the Australian Government.

Their minimum annual salary package is Australian Dollar 40,000.

The “tradesmen“ are happy because this salary is approx. 10 / 15 times what they would earn in India (- if they were lucky enough to find a job !).

Australian employers are happy because they just cannot find highly skilled technicians locally.

It seems, younger Australians prefer white-collar jobs.

May be they believe that white-collar workers may not get In-Sourced.

Is there a chance that white-collar jobs may get Out-Source?
