Australia facing the challenge of shortage of workers

The Home Affairs Minister has stated that there is a shortage of nurses and the available ones have to do double and triple shifts. The flights have been canceled due to the shortage of ground staff. She stated that the first focus has been given to the Australian jobs. The summit focused on training of the new staff along with the participation of women.

The minister also added that even if every possibility is taken into account, there will still be a shortage of workers. She said that because of the complexity of the immigration rules, candidates are migrating to other countries.
