Labour Hire Employer Accreditation (Triangular Employment)

The heavier evidence set required where migrants are placed with host businesses under triangular employment.

From NZD $1,550 excluding GST · one round of amendments included
About this service

What it is

Labour hire accreditation carries no cap on migrant numbers and, in exchange, the heaviest evidence burden of the accreditation types. Immigration New Zealand needs to see the arrangement with each host business, the terms guaranteed to placed workers, and the controls around the placement. This pack documents the placement model rather than a single vacancy.

What the document contains

  • Documentation of the triangular arrangement with each host business
  • Host agreements and placement terms
  • Guaranteed hours and employment conditions for placed workers
  • Workforce composition evidence where sector conditions apply
  • Systems and controls around placement, supervision and health and safety

What the instructions require

  • No limit on migrant worker numbers under labour hire accreditation
  • INZ triangular employer accreditation fee is NZD $4,060
  • Additional conditions apply to construction sector placements
  • Restrictions apply to 90-day trial periods for AEWV labour hire workers

Summarised from Immigration New Zealand instructions current at publication. Instructions change — confirm the current position before relying on any figure.

How it works

From enquiry to delivered document

The same four steps on every file, whether it is a $155 translation or a $2,900 investor submission.

  1. 1

    Send us the file

    Complete the intake form on this page, or e-mail what you have. Upload the documents you already hold — we will tell you what is missing rather than guess.

  2. 2

    We confirm scope and a fixed fee

    Within one business day you get the scope, a fixed fee and a delivery date in writing. Nothing starts until you accept. The fee does not move afterwards.

  3. 3

    We write the document

    Drafted from your evidence, to the standard the assessor works to, with every figure sourced and nothing asserted that the evidence does not support.

  4. 4

    One revision included

    Tell us what needs to change and we revise once at no charge. Most files never need it, and it is there so you are never stuck with a document that does not fit.

Questions

What clients ask about this service

Why is this more expensive?

INZ alone charges $4,060 for this type, against $775 standard — that tells you how much closer they look. We have to document every host relationship, the guaranteed hours, and how workers are supervised across sites.

Can we use standard accreditation instead?

Not if you're placing workers with a controlling third party. Using the wrong type risks the accreditation being revoked.

We place into construction.

Then additional workforce conditions apply. We'll confirm the current requirement before quoting.
