    Why not put the onus on the employer? Have them commit to a fixed term where they’ll be responsible for paying this person, regardless if they want to terminate their employment. You could add your floating grace period to it as well.

    Overall I think there needs to be major reform in the program, beyond this. We should be making the TFW program more burdensome on employers, both to encourage investment in relevant local education/training as well as protecting those who are recruited from being exploited.

      I see what you’re saying. Some sort of unemployment stipend or guaranteed severance in addition to the residency grace period would be ideal
