PALM
Pacific Labour Mobility
Run an approved-employer PALM workforce, by the rules.
PALM runs the obligations an approved employer carries under the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility scheme — work rights and in-country status, pay parity and the safety-net, deductions, and the welfare and accommodation duties that keep workers supported. The same worker record that rosters and pays the crew also evidences the scheme’s requirements.
Modules in this suite
- Approved-employer compliance
Scheme obligations and the compliance scorecard, tracked to evidence.
- Pay & deductions
Pay parity, the safety-net floor and auditable deductions per worker.
- Worker welfare
Welfare checks, health and pastoral support across the season.
- Accommodation
Accommodation standards and assignments kept on record.
A look inside
PALM, in the product.
The actual pacific labour mobility screens — the same surfaces your team works in every day, shown with sample data.
What it is
Run across every stage.
PALM runs the duties an approved employer carries under the Pacific Australia Labour Mobility scheme. From a worker’s arrival and work rights through to settlement and return, their in-country status, welfare and pay all sit on one record — the same record that rosters them to sites and runs their pay.
The scheme’s pay and deduction rules are exacting: workers must be paid to parity and kept above a safety-net floor, and any deductions — accommodation, transport, services — must be fair, capped and fully auditable. PALM keeps pay and deductions on the right side of those rules, with the evidence assembled rather than reconstructed.
Beyond pay, an approved employer’s obligations are pastoral: welfare checks, health, accommodation standards and a compliance scorecard the scheme administrators expect to see met. PALM keeps those duties visible and current, so the people you bring to Australia are supported and the approval that lets you do it stays in good standing.

Scheme obligations and the compliance scorecard tracked to evidence, not left to a season-end scramble.

Where it sits
Runs across every stage.
PALM is a cross-cutting suite — it works alongside every lifecycle stage, on the same shared worker record.
Intelligence, woven in
A capable assistant — never on its own.
PALM does its job whether or not anyone asks it to think. Where it helps, it helps quietly — and a person stays on the call that matters.
Deductions and pay are checked against the scheme’s safety-net and caps as a pay run is built, so an underpayment or an excessive deduction is caught before it’s disbursed.
A supporting capability — reviewable, audited, and always with a person on the call that matters.
