Home Support Worker HSW

[crazycanada2]

I am already in Canada on Open WP and currently working in a restaurant for last 2 years.

I am getting an offer of Employment as HSW. Owner of my restaurant is looking for home support worker and offered me an employment to take care of his parents. My questions are
1. Does the family(Employer) require to apply for LMIA to hire me(I am already in Canada) or they can directly give the employment as a HSW?
2. Do I need a to apply for a specific WP or I can work with the same open WP?

Any suggestion would be a great help. Thanks in advance

1&2 You are on an open work permit so you just work. Don’t even need offer of employment.
