Demanding Fair Labor Contracts for Migrant Workers
Migrant and seasonal farmworkers are entitled to receive written terms and conditions of the job. During the recruitment process, the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act requires that written information about wages, hours, working conditions, and housing be given to migrant workers, or at the start of their work season for seasonal workers. In the case of temporary foreign workers on an H-2A contract, we enforce the terms of their employment contract (the ETA 790) and defend against contracts that contain unlawful terms.
