International Company - LMO Question.
Hello.
I am reading through the Labour Market Opinion Analysis handbook at
http://www.hrsdc.gc.ca/en/workplaces...modir-14.shtml
and one of the paragraphs states:
I am a little confused by that. The company that is looking at me is definately an international company with offices in Switzerland, canada, the UK, the USA and so on. Would that imply they do nto even have to ask for an LMO or does this mean that the Employer does not need to prove that they put in adequat effort to hire a Canadian resident but all other criteria apply such as wage, working conditions and so on?
Thank you.

14.1 Determining if Recruitment is Necessary
In each situation, TFWP officers ask themselves whether recruitment is required for a position. As a general rule, employers must demonstrate efforts to recruit Canadians or permanent residents first; however, there are some exceptions:
[...]
* When the position is with an international organization or the mission of a foreign government and is not exempt under Section 186 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations.

It is about international organization (UN, Unicef, Red Cross, etc, etc..), not about a business or company with international locations.
