Course description
Temporary Agricultural Workers (H-2A Visas)
Learn how to navigate the many overlapping and confusing rules and regulations of the H2A program.
The H2A program allows agricultural employers who anticipate domestic worker shortages to bring nonimmigrant foreign workers to the U.S. to perform temporary or seasonal agricultural labor services. Federal laws and regulations provide for numerous worker protections and employer obligations with respect to wages and working conditions. Noncompliance can result in penalties and claims against employers utilizing H2A labor.
This topic will help agricultural employers navigate the many overlapping and confusing rules and regulations of the H2A program to ensure a thorough understanding of employer responsibilities and requirements. The information will also review the application process and the many state and federal agencies involved.
