There are changes in store for Australia's temporary workers visa program, after cases of worker exploitation prompted a government review. The government have approached several countries with a view to halting unscrupulous practices, including China. The so-called 457-visa program enables workers to move to Australia for up to four years, to help resolve skill shortages, but the government is now considering a rethink.
