Sponsor and Employee Obligations

Grant of Sponsorship: The Sponsor agrees to support the Employee's application for a work authorisation by providing sponsorship and by complying with all applicable duties and reporting obligations required by applicable immigration and employment statutes and regulations. The Sponsor's obligations include maintaining a valid sponsor licence, keeping accurate records of employment, and notifying the relevant authorities of material changes affecting the Employee's sponsorship.

Employee Obligations: The Employee must maintain valid and lawful immigration status, provide truthful information and documentation to the Sponsor, report any change of address or circumstances affecting eligibility within five (5) business days, and comply with the duties of the role described in this licence. Failure to comply shall constitute a material breach permitting termination of sponsorship.

Reporting Requirements: The Sponsor shall notify the Employee in writing and relevant authorities as required in the event of suspension, dismissal, or a material contract change, and shall provide the Employee with written confirmation of such reports. The Sponsor shall also record working hours, contact details and any absences as required by law.

Fees, Costs and Indemnity

Costs and Fees: Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Employee shall be responsible for the costs of immigration application fees, medicals, and travel associated with obtaining and renewing necessary authorisations. The Sponsor shall be responsible for any statutory fees required to maintain the sponsor licence. Any employer-paid fees will be set out in a written addendum where applicable.

Indemnity: The Employee agrees to indemnify and hold the Sponsor harmless for any losses, fines, penalties or liabilities arising from the Employee's failure to comply with immigration conditions, provided such indemnity is permitted by law. The Sponsor agrees to indemnify the Employee against losses resulting from negligent failure by the Sponsor to perform mandatory reporting duties.

Term, Termination and Remedies

Term: This Sponsorship Licence shall commence on the Sponsorship Start Date and shall continue until the Sponsorship End Date unless terminated earlier in accordance with this licence.

Termination for Cause: The Sponsor may terminate this licence immediately where the Employee provides false information, loses the required authorisation, is convicted of a relevant offence affecting employment eligibility, or otherwise commits a material breach. The Employee may terminate with reasonable notice where the Sponsor materially breaches its obligations, including failure to maintain a valid sponsor licence.

Data Processing, Confidentiality and Compliance

Data Processing: The parties acknowledge and consent that personal data provided in connection with this licence will be processed and disclosed as required to fulfil sponsorship obligations. Both parties will process personal data in accordance with applicable privacy laws and will take reasonable steps to protect the data.

Confidentiality: Except as required by law or to enforce the terms of this licence, neither party shall disclose confidential information of the other party. Confidential information does not include information that is publicly available or disclosed by a third party having the right to disclose it.

Legal Disclosures and Authorizations

At-Will Employment Statement: Nothing in this Sponsorship Licence alters the at-will nature of employment, unless a separate written employment contract states otherwise. Either party may terminate the employment relationship subject to any statutory or contractual notice requirements.

Equal Opportunity: The Sponsor is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of protected characteristics. Recruitment and sponsorship decisions are made on the basis of objective job-related criteria.

Authorization to Contact and Background Checks: I authorize the Sponsor to contact my previous employers and references. I authorize the Sponsor to conduct employment, criminal and immigration status checks as permitted by law.

Breach, Notices and Governing Law

Breach: Material breach of any obligation under this licence by either party shall entitle the non-breaching party to terminate the licence and pursue available remedies including injunctive relief, specific performance and damages to the extent permitted by law.

Notices: Any notices under this licence shall be in writing and addressed to the contact details set out above or to such other address as a party may designate in writing. Notices are effective upon receipt.
