This will be for a range of hospitality work at the Inter Con's property on Hayman Island, Australia, where three Fijians are already working as Junior Chefs under the Pacific Labour Scheme.

The Pacific Labour Facility’s Labour Mobility Engagement Manager, Sascha Piggot says the Inter Con would be recruiting hospitality workers as Junior Chefs , Kitchen Stewards, Room Attendants, Public Area Attendants and for their Food and Beverage department.

Piggot says it is being reopened after devastating effects from a cyclone.

A total of 30 Fijians are being deployed to Australia this week as meat workers, with 19 departing for Naracoorte, South Australia on Monday and 11 leaving today for Rockhampton in Queensland.

She says they have 80 men and women from Fiji who are either already in Australia or about to be deployed to Australia.

Piggot says they are from around the country and anybody is able to register their interest in the Pacific Labour Facility’s Labour by going to any one of the seven NEC offices.
