All working immigrants in Australia have workplace rights. This includes visa holders, visa violators, and visa overstayers as well. This is because of the strong labor laws in Australia that offer workplace rights and protections to all workers.

Overseas immigrants who are working lawfully in Australia, those who are working in violation of their visa conditions and even those who are overstaying their visa are entitled to these rights. The employers who hire overseas workers are obligated to comply with the immigration and workplace laws in Australia.

The workplace conditions and pay rates are defined by the law in Australia. The Tool for Conditions and Pay offers diverse and comprehensive details. These include redundancy entitlements, notice and leave arrangements, shift calculations and pay rates.

The Ombudsman for Fair Work offers further information and advice regarding the rights at workplace and obligations. The information related to the workplace has also been translated by it into diverse languages. The protections and rights are inclusive of safety matters and workplace health, as quoted by the Home Affairs Gov AU.

The employer of an immigrant worker cannot cancel the visa. This can be done only by the Home Affairs Department in Australia. The DHA can approve, cancel or refuse visas. Cancellation of Australia visa is not an automatic process even in conditions when the visa holder has breached the terms of the visa.

If visa cancellation is under consideration the visa holder will be given the chance to offer reasons for not canceling his/her visa.
