John, the employment contract secrecy has been quite common around recently. SAFEA's contract is often different than the actual employer's one which proves this country's system is just ridiculous. Whatever they set up they later compromise themselves on purpose and usually for their own good. My view is that the SAFEA has been set up symbolically only. Many foreign expert offices serve employers mostly and if you raise an issue with an FE office, you might find yourself cornered by three different sides, the PSB, the employer and the Foreign Expert's authority that's bias as hell. Why would they serve you? To them it's not profitable, is it?

Anyway, any secrecy at work opens the door to abuse, doesn't it?

Cheers and beers to packing and going home rather than staying around and helping these unscrupulous local authorities and their licenced sharks that invite us to only dance to their own tunes
