Foreword
This Guideline explains the Papua New Guinea Classification of Industrial Divisions and the Papua New Guinea Classification of Occupations which are an integral part of the Work Permit System.
The Classification of Occupations is particularly important because there are certain rules surrounding the employment of foreign workers in Papua New Guinea. These requirements have been a unique feature of our foreign employment laws for almost four decades. In fact, the first time certain occupations were reserved for Papua New Guinean citizens was in November 1972, some years before our independence.
The Department of Labour and Industrial Relations is very sympathetic to the needs of the business community in Papua New Guinea. Indeed, the rules outlined within this Guideline have been developed in close consultation with representatives of business to ensure that they do not create unnecessary impediments to investing or doing business in our country.
On the other hand, the Department has an obligation to ensure that the work permit system also looks after the interests of Papua New Guineans. Unfortunately, our country has significant unemployment challenges and many of our citizens do not have access to employment opportunities. For this reason, the aspirations of all Papua New Guineans for a decent job must be balanced with the needs of business to recruit foreign workers.
As a general rule, all managerial, professional and highly skilled jobs within our economy are open to non-citizen employees. Certain other occupations must be advertised in the local press first before a non-citizen worker can be engaged. Occupations which do not require a particular qualification or skill are generally reserved for citizen workers and a non-citizen worker may not be employed to fill such a position.
I believe our foreign employment laws represent a fair balance between the needs of the business community for foreign workers, and the legitimate desire of all Papua New Guineans for decent work and opportunities. Of course, we must recognize that business needs and the labour market will change from time to time. For this reason the arrangements outlined within these Guidelines will be reviewed regularly and, if necessary, a new Guideline may be issued from time to time. It is a requirement of our law that any review must be done in close consultation with all stakeholders, particularly our partners in the business community.
These Guidelines should be read in conjunction with the Work Permit Guideline: A General Guide to the Foreign Employment System in Papua New Guinea which is also available for purchase at a nominal fee from the Department. Further information about the Work Permit System may also be obtained from www.workpermits.gov.pg.
I encourage employers, non-citizen employees, agents and any other persons to use this Guideline as a source of information when dealing with the Department.
These Guidelines take effect from 1 January 2009.

INTRODUCTION
1. What is the purpose of this Guideline?
This Guideline is issued by the Secretary, Department of Labour and Industrial Relations under the authority of
Section 55 of the Employment of Non-citizens Act 2007. This Section states:
“The Secretary may, by written notice, issue guidelines, not inconsistent with this Act, for the benefit of
employers or self-employed persons seeking to make application for work permits.”
The purpose of this Guideline is to provide clients and stakeholders of the Work Permit System with an
easy-to-understand explanation of Papua New Guinea’s foreign employment laws; particularly in relation to
Classification of Occupations and the Classification of Industrial Divisions.
2. How to use this Guideline
Part 1 of this Guideline deals with the Classification of Industrial Divisions.
Essentially, an employer wishing to engage the services of a non-citizen employee must provide information
about their company’s economic activity. Part 1 of the Guideline explains what information is required and how
it is to be provided as part of an application for a work permit.
Part 2 of this Guideline deals with the Classification of Occupations.
An employer who applies for a work permit for a non-citizen employee must also provide information about the
occupation of the employee.
Certain occupations are reserved for Papua New Guinean workers and a work permit cannot be issued to a foreign
worker for these occupations. Other jobs must be advertised in Papua New Guinea first before a work permit can
be granted to a non-citizen employee. Part 2 of the Guideline explains these requirements.
A full list of the Classification of Industrial Divisions and the Classification of Occupations can be found at the
back of this Guideline. In addition, a detailed version of the Classification of Occupations with a definition and
alternative title of each occupation is also provided at the back of this Guideline.
3. Importance of this Guideline
It is very important that clients of the Work Permit System use this Guideline when applying for a work permit for
a non-citizen employee.
The correct use of this guideline will prevent unnecessary delays to the processing of work permit applications.
If the required information about the Industrial Division or the Occupation is not provided, or if the information
is incorrect, the application for the work permit will be rejected. The work permit application form will also be
returned to the applicant and the application will not be considered until the (correct) information is provided.
1
PART 1: INDUSTRIAL DIVISIONS1.1 Overview
The Classification of Industrial Divisions organises data and statistics about businesses in Papua New Guinea. It does this by putting businesses, which carry out similar economic activities, into groups.
The Classification in use by the Work Permit System is particularly concerned with the collection of data about foreign workers in Papua New Guinea. Essentially, it is a simplified classification system which requires an employer for a work permit to identify general information about the area of the economy they are engaged in.
A full list of the Classification of Industrial Divisions can be found at the back of this Guideline.
1.2 What is the statistical information used for? Data collected by the Work Permit System is used to compile statistics about the number, nationality, skills and occupations of foreign workers in Papua New Guinea.
Amongst other things, this information helps Government identify skills gaps within the local labour market. With the help of this data, Government can develop and implement appropriate strategies to address these shortages in the human resource development sector.
1.3 Structure
The Classification of Occupations has two levels: namely Divisions and Subdivisions.
Divisions represent the broadest category of economic activity or sector of the economy. There are 19 Divisions. Each Division is represented by a letter of the alphabet as follows:
Division A: Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing
Division B: Mining
Division C: Manufacturing
Division D: Electricity, Gas, Water and Waste Services
Division E: Construction and Infrastructure
Division F: Wholesale Trade
Division G: Retail Trade
Division H: Accommodation and Food Services
Division I: Transport, Postal and Warehousing
Division J: Information Media and Telecommunications
Division K: Financial and Insurance Services
Division L: Rental, Hiring and Real Estate Services
Division M: Professional, Scientific and Technical Services
Division N: Administrative and Support Services
Division O: Public Administration and Safety
Division P: Education and Training
Division Q: Health Care and Social Assistance
Division R: Arts and Recreation Services
Division S: Other Services
2
Subdivisions simply represent a further expansion of the economic activity in each Division. Subdivisions are represented by a number. For example, Division B: MINING has the following Subdivisions:
Subdivision 06: Coal Mining
Subdivision 07: Oil and Gas Extraction
Subdivision 09: Non-Metallic Mineral Mining and Quarrying
Subdivision 10: Exploration and Other Mining Support Services
1.4 What Industrial Division information must be submitted with a work permit application?
Question 10 and Question 11 of Form 1 (Application for a New Work Permit) requests the following information:
10. Industrial Division (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): …
11. Industrial Subdivision Code (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): …
The applicant company or business wishing to employ a non-citizen employee must provide the information relevant to its particular circumstances.
Example 1
A Company engaged in a Liquefied Natural Gas Project in PNG would complete Questions 10 and 11 in the following way (answers in red):
10. Industrial Division (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): DIVISION B: MINING
11. Industrial Subdivision Code (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): SUBDIVISION 07: OIL AND GAS EXTRACTION
Example 2
A Company manufacturing biscuits would provide the following information:
10. Industrial Division (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): DIVISION C: MANUFACTURING
11. Industrial Subdivision Code (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): SUBDIVISION 11: FOOD PRODUCT MANUFACTURING
Example 3
A Company involved in the telecommunications services industry would provide the following information:
10. Industrial Division (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): DIVISION J: INFORMATION, MEDIA AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS
11. Industrial Subdivision Code (selected from “PNG Classification of Industrial Divisions”): SUBDIVISION 58: TELECOMMUNICATIONS SERVICES
It is important to remember that each company must complete the application form with the information that describes its specific economic activity.
Clients should refer to the full Classification of Industrial Divisions which is provided at the back of this Guideline when completing the work permit application form. 3
PART 2: OCCUPATIONS2.1 Overview
The Papua New Guinea Classification of Occupations has been developed specifically for the Work Permit System.
Essentially, the Classification attempts to identify all of the relevant jobs within the Papua New Guinea Labour
Market.
The Classification is based on the International Standard Classification of Occupations (ISCO) and the Australian
and New Zealand Standard Classification of Occupations (ANSCO). These classification systems have been
changed slightly to create an occupation listing that suits Papua New Guinea’s labour market.
A full list of the Classification of Occupations is provided at the back of this Guideline. A list of the Classification of
Occupations, with a Definition and Alternative Title is also provided at the back of this Guideline.
2.2 What is the classification used for?
The Classification of Occupations fulfills two important functions in the Work Permit System.
Firstly, it provides important labour market data about the presence of foreign workers in Papua New Guinea.
Data about occupations is used by Government and other stakeholders for a wide range of policy, financial,
administrative and statistical purposes.
Secondly, the Classification of Occupations is used to regulate the employment of foreign workers in Papua New
Guinea. This issue will be discussed below.
2.3 A simple structure
The Classification of Occupations follows a logical sequence.
Essentially, the Classification groups occupations with similar skills and then identifies further sub-groups of each
occupation in a ‘cascading’ format.
In the first instance there are 8 Major Occupational Groups which are the broadest level of occupations. These
8 Groups are:
Major Group 1: Managers
Major Group 2: Professionals
Major Group 3: Technicians and Trades Workers
Major Group 4: Community and Personal Service Workers
Major Group 5: Clerical and Administrative Workers
Major Group 6: Sales Workers
Major Group 7: Machinery Operators and Drivers
Major Group 8: Labourers
4
Secondly, there are Sub-major Groups under each Major Occupational Group. These Sub-major Groups are
simply subdivisions of the Major Occupational Group and make it easy for the reader of the document to locate
a particular occupation.
The next grouping is called the Unit or Minor Group which is a further subdivision of the Sub-major Group.
Finally, the actual job is identified in the Occupation title. The Occupation is the most detailed level of the List
and gives a name to the actual job performed by the person. This is the most important part of the Classification
as Clients must identify the occupation when submitting their application for a work permit.
As indicated above, the Classification follows a cascading format. For example, an employer applying for a work
permit for a non-citizen Human Resources Manager would locate the occupation as follows:
Major Group1: Managers
Sub-major Group: Specialist Managers
Unit/Minor Group: Business Administration Managers
Occupation: Human Resource Manager
2.4 Occupation Codes
The Classification has a specific system of coding for each occupation.
Essentially, the first number in the code of an occupation will correspond to the Major Occupational Group i.e. an
occupation in Major Group 1 will always have a code commencing with 1...; an occupation in Major Group 2 will
always have a code commencing with 2 etc.
Occupation codes are also generally sequential so that new occupations can be added if required.
2.5 Matching job titles with occupations from the list
The Department accepts that it is a reality that businesses adopt their own job titles for internal positions
within their organisations. These job titles may not necessarily correspond with those on the Classification of
Occupations.
For example, Human Resource Manager (132311) is often titled “Personnel Manager” by companies
in PNG.
The Department does not wish to dictate to companies what names or titles should be given to positions within
their own organisations. This is a matter for the company itself.
However, if a business wishes to apply for a work permit for a non-citizen they must choose a title from the
List of Occupations i.e. they must locate the occupation which best describes the job being done. This job or
occupation title will then appear on the work permit and the work permit card. In the example above, a company
which employs a Personnel Manager would select the occupation Human Resource Manager (132311) from
the Classification.
5
In some instances, the List does allow for a classification “not elsewhere classified” (nec) to be selected where the
particular job cannot be found on the List. However, this classification should be used by exception only and the
Department’s policy is that, wherever possible, a specific occupation must be selected.
2.6 Some help - definitions and alternative titles for occupations
In order to address the situation identified above, the Department has developed a definition for each occupation.
In addition, where jobs or occupations have different titles, these are listed after the definition.
For example, Human Resource Manager (132311) is defined as a person who:
“Plans, organises, directs, controls and coordinates the human resource and work place relations activities of an organisation. Alterative title: Personnel Manager, Industrial Relations Manager, Employee Relations Manager, Occupational Health and Safety Manager, Training and Development Manager, People Manager.”
By providing a definition and alternative titles of each occupation, employers will be able to locate the occupation
of the non-citizen workers even if it is given an internal company title which is not on the Classification of
Occupations.
The Classification of Occupations with Definitions and Alternative Titles is provided at the back of this Guideline.
It is very important that the correct occupation of the non-citizen employee is selected from the Classification
of Occupations. In some cases occupations are of a technical or specialist nature and it is the responsibility of the
employer and the employee to identify the correct job. Any work permit application which does not identify the correct
occupation will be rejected.
2.7 Regulating foreign workers in PNG
The second function of the Classification of Occupations is to provide a framework for regulating the presence of
foreign workers in PNG.
Of course, expatriate workers are very welcome in Papua New Guinea. The Government of Papua New Guinea
recognises that foreign investment and skills are needed for the country’s economy to grow and for its people to
prosper. For this reason, one of the key objectives of the work permit system is to assist employers to retain the
services of qualified, skilled and experienced non-citizen workers where these skills cannot be found locally.
However, Papua New Guinea’s foreign employment laws must also look after the interests of its citizens. The law
must strike a balance between the needs of business; and the aspirations of Papua New Guineans for decent work
and opportunities.
The legislation does this by, amongst others, protecting or reserving certain jobs for Papua New Guineans. In
addition, employers in Papua New Guinea are required to advertise certain jobs locally before they can engage
the services of a non-citizen employee.
The legal authority for reserving occupations for citizen employees is found in Section 12 of the Employment
of Non-citizens Act 2007 and Section 10 and Schedule 2 of the Employment of Non-citizens Regulation 2008. The
legal authority for requiring certain occupations to be advertised is found in Section 13 of the Employment of
Non-citizens Act 2007 and Section 11 and Schedule 3 of the Employment of Non-citizens Regulation 2008. This
Guideline sets out these requirements in an easy-to-understand format. It is an offence under Section 6 of the Act
to employ a non-citizen who does not have a valid work permit.
These requirements have been a part of Papua New Guinea’s laws since 1972. They are intended to ensure that
Papua New Guineans are able to participate in, and benefit from, the economy of their own country. 6
2.8 How much regulation?
Generally speaking, the approach to regulating foreign employment in Papua New Guinea is based on 3 broad
principles.
The first principle is that employers should be able to freely recruit non-citizens for Managerial, Professional,
Skilled Trades and other occupations which require a high skill level. The rationale for this is simple - there are not,
at present, enough Papua New Guinean workers to meet the demand for these skills. For this reason, Government
recognizes that businesses must have access to foreign employees to meet the local skills shortage.
The second principle is that jobs which might be regarded as semi-skilled should be advertised in PNG first. If
a suitable candidate cannot be found, then the employer is free to recruit a non-citizen for that position. Again,
the rationale is self-evident. If there is a Papua New Guinean worker who is suitable to do the job, then he or she
should be given an opportunity before that of a citizen from another country.
The final general principle is that unskilled or low-skilled jobs should be reserved for PNG citizens. This principle
is based on the understanding that there are many unemployed Papua New Guineans who can adequately fill
these types of positions.
This does not mean that there are no qualified, skilled and experienced Papua New Guineans. There are many
highly qualified Papua New Guineans - in fact many of these workers are employed overseas!
2.9 Traffic lights
The various categories of jobs in the Classification of Occupations are represented by traffic light symbols:
7
Red (Stop!)is for those occupations which are
reserved for citizens only
Orange (Wait before you go!)is for jobs which must be advertised in PNG
first before a non-citizen can be employed
Green (Go!)is for occupations which are open
to both citizens and non-citizens
2.10 Advertised Occupations
Work permits cannot be granted to non-citizens for occupations which require advertising unless certain simple
requirements have been met:
The job vacancy must be advertised in at least 1 edition of the Post Courier and 1 edition of the National
newspapers (i.e. a total of 2 advertisements);
The advertisement must measure at least 60mm by 60mm. It is acceptable to advertise multiple vacancies
in one advertisement as long as it meets this minimum size requirement;
If no suitable citizen is found, an employer may apply for a work permit for a non-citizen worker;
The decision to recruit (or not to recruit) a specific employee is a decision for the employer and the
Department will generally not interfere in this process;
The work permit application must contain the original clipping from at least 1 newspaper advertisement
and the date of the second newspaper advertisement;
The application for a work permit may not be made later than 3 months after the closing date for
applications for the vacancy. For example: if the closing date for advertising the vacancy was 1 January,
then a work permit must be applied for by no later than 1 April. If the work permit application is not
submitted within this 3 month period, then the position must be advertised again;
The employer must provide a statement outlining why a citizen could not be found to fill the vacancy;
No advertising is required when renewing work permits.
The requirement to advertise is not intended to delay or impede employers who need skilled workers. Quite
simply, it is intended to encourage employers to consider recruiting Papua New Guinean workers before
bringing in a foreign worker.
Most employers always advertise in local Papua New Guinea newspapers for staff so this is not an additional
requirement. In addition, the Department is confident that employers will find a suitable PNG worker for jobs
which require advertising.
In fact, if a Papua New Guinean worker is found through the advertising process, the employer will save significant
time and money.
8
The Department of Labour and Industrial
Relations encourages all employers to give a
Papua New Guinean worker a go!
2.11 Report on advertising
Clients do not need to provide excessive information in support of their application. In fact, clients are encouraged to attach the required information onto a single A4 sheet of paper.
The following example would meet the requirements (note: this is an example only):
Work Permit Application for Mr. Feng Chun REPORT ON ADVERTISING BY ABC STEEL CO.
Occupation: Welder Occupation Code: 322313 Dates Advertised: Post Courier, 1 March 2009 National, 2 March 2009
Copy of at least 1 Newspaper Clipping (pasted below):
Reasons why a suitable PNG applicant could not be found: We received 4 applications for this position. Unfortunately, none of the applicants was able to demonstrate
any experience in welding pressure vessels and boilers. It is essential that the successful applicant has experience of this nature (see job description attached to work permit application).
Signed: Mr. Lee Sun, General Manager, ABC Steel Co. Date: 1 April 2009
2.12 Updating the classification of occupations
Government recognizes that the needs of business and the labour market in PNG will constantly change. For this reason, the Classification of Occupations will be updated on a regular basis.
Any review of the Classification will consider whether new occupations should be created and whether certain existing occupations should be removed. In addition, any review will consider whether occupations should be reclassified in relation to their open, advertised or reserved status.
Section 14 of the Employment of Non-citizens Act 2007 requires any review of the Classification of Occupations to be conducted through the National Training Council, which is representative of all of the major stakeholders of the work permit system.
Post Courier 1 March 2009
WELDER WANTEDABC Steel Co. has an exciting opportunity for a Welder at its Morobe manufacturing site. Must have extensive
experience in welding pressure vessels and boilers.
Attractive salary and benefits. Send CV and 2 referees to Mr. Lee Sun, GM, ABC Steel Co. Applications close
15 March 2009.
PNG welders are encouraged to apply.

2.13 Department support
The Department of Labour and Industrial Relations and its staff stand ready to support and assist all clients all clients and stakeholders of the Work Permit System.
If you do not understand any of the requirements of the system, simply contact a staff member for assistance.
It’s easy!
Step 1
Choose the Division Code and Subdivision Code which best describes your business
activity from the Classification of Industrial Divisions.
Step 2:
Choose the Occupation Title and 6-digit Occupation Code which best describes the job of
the non-citizen from the Classification of Occupations.
Step 3:
If you are unsure which occupation best describes your situation, have a look at the
Classification of Occupations with Definitions and Alternative Titles. You must select the
name and code from the DLIR list.
Step 4
If the occupation is open you may proceed to recruit a non-citizen and apply
for a work permit.
Step 5
If the occupation must be advertised in PNG first, your work permit application
must attach proof that you have advertised the occupation locally. You must also state why
you were not able to find a suitable PNG worker.
Step 6
If the occupation is reserved you may not recruit a non-citizen as the job can be
filled by a citizen worker only.
