Who falls under MWO Vancouver
MWO Vancouver states that it serves worksites in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Yukon and the Northwest Territories.
Direct Hire conditions highlighted by current guidance
MWO Vancouver guidance says Direct Hire is an exemption rather than a right; it describes a one-time transaction of up to five workers for company/business employers, TEER 1–3 jobs, wage at or above the applicable median, and direct employer submission except for recognized registered Canadian recruitment agencies.
Document verification still matters
Current Vancouver guidance and its direct-hiring checklist describe verified employment documents and employer-side evidence needed before DMW registration and later OEC processing.
