Another semi-fraudulent practice I've seen too often: find an H1B worker for a position you want to fill at a sub-US labor rate, then write a very specific job

Another semi-fraudulent practice I've seen too often: find an H1B worker for a position you want to fill at a sub-US labor rate, then write a very specific job posting that perfectly fits that one H1B worker and no one else, and post the job only on the company website where no one will find it. Congratulations, you've just "proven" that you can't find an American worker to do this job, so you bring the H1B worker over as basically an indentured servant. In reality, there were plenty of American workers who could have and would have taken the role if it was represented properly and actually paid a competitive market salary.
- breitling 6y agoThis is happening so much in Canada right now It's horrible. Govt is not even remotely interested in fixing this
- JAlexoid 6y agoWhy would you like for the government to break it? It's literally telling someone that wants to hire a particular person to not hire that person, because you think that that person is wrong. Would you like me to advocate for the government telling who you hire as your barber? Advocating employment restrictions - is just that.
- JAlexoid 6y agoIf there's someone who is willing to take a job at a particular rate without coercion - that's a competitive salary. Adding "benevolent coercion" to the mix, doesn't negate the coercion.
