In case some workers wish to immigrate to New Zealand, you might find this information handy, as of 4 September 2021.
The open borders between Australia and New Zealand should eventually happen again.
If you're Australian and a small number of Pacific Island's citizens (all with small populations) wanting to work in New Zealand, you have an advantage over any other citizenship.
Unfortunately due to the shortage of MIQ facilities, it's pretty much impossible for any overseas worker to arrive this year.

It's also bad in the other direction Covid-19: 'No end in sight' for Australians stranded in New Zealand
Here's info specific from New Zealand immigration from Australia, which again is the most "open",
Travelling to New Zealand during a quarantine-free travel suspension
All travellers from Australia to New Zealand must go through managed isolation and quarantine.
You can return to New Zealand if you:
- Are a New Zealand citizen, or
- Are a New Zealand permanent resident or resident visa holder, or
- Have a critical purpose reason for entry
Travelling from other locations
Travellers from other locations in Australia must:
- have both your COVID-19 test sample taken and your result returned within 72 hours of your scheduled departure time, and
- not have been in a location of interest in the past 14 days, and
- have no symptoms of COVID-19, and
- are not a contact of a COVID-19 case, and
- complete the travel declaration, and
- complete the health declaration at the airport.
