Abstract: Australia’s migration landscape has been transformed in the past two decades. Although Australia was initially founded upon a culture of permanent migration, built upon ideas of nation-building and citizenship, temporary labour migration has now become the norm. There are over one million migrants with work rights temporarily residing in Australia. Although Australia has only one primary pathway for temporary migrant workers, namely the subclass 457 visa, a number of other visas provide opportunities for temporary migrants to perform work in the domestic labour market. Both international students and working holiday makers have work rights, and a significant amount of unskilled and low skilled work is done by temporary migrants on these visas.
