There are no fixed minimum revenue or full-time employee requirements for a Canadian company to offer a job to a foreign worker. However, the employer must meet these key conditions:

- Genuine job offer: The position must be legitimate and necessary for the business.
- Recruitment efforts: The employer must show they tried to hire Canadians or permanent residents first.
- Competitive wages: The salary offered should match the typical wage for that role in the region.
- Business legitimacy: The company must be a real, operating business able to support the job offer.

Employers usually need to get a Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) to hire foreign workers. LMIA and related requirements are subject to change.
