temporary employment pass

[advice needed]

Is there any thing as a temporary employment pass that is given till the EP is granted.My husband's employers have said that they will give him a temporary employment pass so that he can start working if the EP takes time.
thanks for all your help

Normally you have to wait to get your EP before you can start working. That is the rule.
If processing takes time, give them a call (or better go to MOM) and try to find out why. I did it for myself, 3 days later I got it. There are some human beings working for the system...

Yes there is. My EP aplication didn't end up going in until the week before I was due to fly out here so they took away my passport when I arrived and later that day it appeared with a 30 day temporary permit...

Haven't a clue about the mecahnics of getting one though..
