Notes on using the WASMOL

Occupations may have the following status:

• Available = occupation is available for nomination

• Restricted = occupation is under review and invitations to apply for State nomination will be limited pending the outcome of the review

• Closed = occupation is closed for invitations

The occupations identified on WASMOL do not relate to any specific job vacancies, nor represent any guarantee of a job, but rather identify occupations that are considered a priority for the State. It is recommended that you research employment opportunities in Western Australia (in your occupation) before making the decision to migrate.

The WASMOL is made up of two schedules.

Schedule 1

Schedule 1 is the highest priority occupations, with occupations being assessed as critical to the State and having unmet demand.

Applicants must demonstrate Australian or overseas work experience in their nominated occupation. This is a mandatory requirement for nomination by the Western Australian Government, which is over and above the minimum requirements set for the State Nominated program by the Commonwealth Government.

To determine your eligibility to apply, consult the Criteria for State nomination.

Schedule 2

Schedule 2 includes those occupations which are critical to the State, and while not having evidence of unmet demand at a whole of State level, these occupations may have pockets of unmet demand at an industry sector or regional level. In these circumstances there is often a need for demonstrated experience in lead or highly specialised roles and where new graduates cannot satisfy this experience requirement.

Intending migrants nominating an occupation from Schedule 2 are required to provide evidence of an employment contract in that occupation and applicants must demonstrate relevant Australian or overseas work experience in their nominated occupation. This is a mandatory requirement for nomination by the Western Australian Government, which is over and above the minimum requirements set for the State Nominated program by the Commonwealth Government.

To determine your eligibility to apply, consult the Criteria for State nomination.

Notes:

nec means 'not elsewhere classified'.

*Australian and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (Australian Bureau of Statistics).
