Question pretext

Please ask the adult in the household who will have the next birthday to answer this section

Literal question

New Zealand's Recognized Seasonal Employer (RSE) work scheme has now been in place two years and Australia has recently launched its own seasonal work program, the Australian Pacific Seasonal Workers Pilot Scheme. We are interested in your personal opinion about what seems best in terms of recruitment for these types of programs. You do not need to have participated in these programs to answer this question.

A second issue is whether many of the same individuals should participate for several years if they like, or if each year different people should be given the chance to work abroad. Employers like to hire the same people again if they are good, since they have already learnt the skills needed to work abroad. But this means fewer people might get to participate in the program. Which would you prefer?
