People who are actually imported by an employer don't get paid substandard rates. One of my clients spent 8 months recruiting a technician to run his new printing presses with no luck.
Not enough trained people. The manufacturer gave him a list of people who paid for the training program and he had to import a tech from India. He paid $100k salary plus costs for relocation and lost the tech to a competitor a year later. The new salary was $125k.
When you spent $3M on 2 pieces of sophisticated machinery, cheap labor is not top of mind unless you want to sabotage your business.
Bringing in a foreign worker was a last resort when he ran out of time.
