DOL publishes final rule for H-2A program
The Department of Labor (DOL) Wage and Hour Division implemented changes to the H-2A non-immigrant temporary workers program effective March 15, 2010.
All program users are now required to file their applications under the new regulations and comply with applicable program requirements including the posting of an H-2A poster where employees can readily see it.
This rule will strengthen protections for both U.S. and foreign workers and ensure the integrity of the H-2A program.
The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) covers agricultural employers seeking to hire temporary agricultural workers under H-2A visas. The work performed by these workers must be “of a temporary or seasonal nature,” usually in relation to the production and/or harvesting of a crop.
Employers that could be impacted include:
- Landscaping
- Irrigation
- Agriculture
The new poster is available at: www.dol.gov/whd/posters/pdf/ WHD1491Eng_H2A.pdf. A Spanish version is also available.
