Abstract

The Department of Labor (the Department or DOL) is proposing regulatory revisions that would modernize the recruitment an employer seeking H 2A nonimmigrant agricultural workers must conduct when applying for a temporary labor certification. In particular, the Department is proposing to replace the print newspaper advertisements that its regulations currently require with electronic advertisements posted on the internet, which the Department believes will be a more effective and efficient means of disseminating information about job openings to U.S. workers. The Department is proposing to replace, rather than supplement, the newspaper requirements because it believes that exclusive electronic advertisements would best ensure U.S. workers learn of job opportunities.
