Certain areas of Australia hold a ‘Designated Area Migration Agreement’ or ‘DAMA’. A DAMA allows businesses in that designated area to access a DAMA labour agreement to sponsor positions or access concessions that are not ordinarily available in the general visa programs.
Some exciting updates were made to the Western Australia Kalgoorlie Goldfields DAMA Program last week.
