One of the most pressing issues facing seasonal businesses continues to be labor – specifically how to secure reliable employees to fill seasonal and permanent needs. Advertising does not always work and if you are lucky enough to hire a U.S. worker, they may not stay more than a few days.
It is a myth that the only reason an employer would hire foreign workers is because it’s “cheap labor.” The reality is they cannot always find reliable U.S. options. In this webinar series, we will navigate through the complex maze of the H-2B non-agriculture and H-2A agricultural visa programs to provide an overview of visa requirements, procedures, compliance and employer obligations. We will also discuss foreign labor options to fill permanent labor needs at farms and seasonal businesses.
We will cover:
- H-2B 101: The 2025 process
- 2025 updates
- H-2B DOL and USCIS compliance requirements
- How to prepare for an H-2B government audit
Who should attend: Human Resources, Business Owners, General Counsel
