What happens if the temporary foreign worker is released from their job before their work permit expires?
Temporary foreign workers pay into Employment Insurance (EI). As any other Canadian or landed immigrant, he or she qualifies for EI. Temporary foreign workers can also find a new job. It’s then up to the new employer to go through the Labour Market Opinion process before any job offer is made. Likewise, the temporary foreign worker would need a new work permit.
