What is an LMO?
An LMO is an acronymn for Labour Market Opinion, and this is issued by Human Resources & Skills Development Canada. They are the governing body that decides what skills Canada needs in order to develop and grow a strong economy.
As an employer, you must apply for a Labour Market Opinion (LMO) before you can hire a foreign worker or get pre-approval to hire a large number of workers.
A positive Labour Market Opinion will show that there is a need for the foreign worker to fill the job you offer and that there is no Canadian worker available to do the job.
You can find more information about LMOs and application forms on the Temporary Foreign Worker Program website.
