THE LORG PALM PATHWAY - Advantages for Aged Care Operators:
For Aged Care Operators struggling with staff shortages, THE LORG PALM PATHWAY offers, real cost advantages over traditional Subclass 482 sponsorship:
| 482 Visa | PALM Scheme | |
|---|---|---|
| Minimum salary | Current TSMIT - $79,423 + 12% super = $88,954 package. | Salaries dictated by specific awards |
| Visa costs | Huge upfront costs; SAF $4,800 - $7,200 Nomination Fee $330 Visa Application fee $4,015 Professional fees $4,500 - $6,000 | No upfront costs with THE LORG PALM PATHWAY |
| Retention | Employees have flexibility to move between employers. In year 3 Employer has to cover Subclass 186 Employer Nomination costs | 99% of Aged Care workers stay with their employer under THE LORG PALM PATHWAY |
For semi-skilled and support roles, this means employers aren't forced into 482 salary thresholds that don't reflect the role's actual value — while gaining a workforce with retention rates most sectors can only dream of.
