What to know about 4000

  • The postcode that matters is where you physically work, not your employer's office address.
  • Recovery work in a declared area can be paid or volunteer. For volunteer work, each day worked counts as one day.
  • The work must be paid at the legal award rate (except volunteer recovery work).
  • ABS classes 4000 as major city Australia. That's an ABS statistic and isn't the same as Home Affairs' list of remote areas for hospitality; the tables above are what count.

Questions about 4000

Does farm work in Brisbane (4000) count for the 88 days?

No. 4000 isn't on the official list for farm work (plant and animal cultivation) on either visa, so it won't count towards your days.

Does hospitality in Brisbane (4000) count for the 88 days?

No. Tourism and hospitality only count in Northern Australia, Remote and Very Remote Australia and four extra postcodes. 4000 isn't one of them, so a café, bar or hotel job here doesn't count.

Does mining in Brisbane (4000) count for the 88 days?

No. 4000 isn't on the list for mining on a 417 visa, and mining never counts on a 462 visa.

Does construction work in Brisbane (4000) count?

No. 4000 isn't on the official list for construction on either visa, so it won't count towards your days.

Does it matter where I live or where my employer's office is?

No. What counts is where you physically do the work. If you work in 4000 but your payslips show an office elsewhere, ask your employer for a letter naming the work site and postcode.
