🚨 EMPLOYERS: BEWARE OF H-2B VIOLATIONS 🚨

Protect Your Business. Protect Your Workers.

The H-2B Visa Program allows employers to hire foreign workers for non-agricultural seasonal jobs. But violations can be costly:

Civil Money Penalties
Back Wages & Lawsuits
Debarment from H-2B Program
Reputation Damage


Common H-2B Violations to Avoid:

  • 🚫 Failing to pay the prevailing wage
  • 🚫 Misrepresenting job duties, hours, or working conditions
  • 🚫 Not reimbursing visa, transportation, or recruitment fees
  • 🚫 Retaliating against workers who exercise their rights
  • 🚫 Poor recordkeeping that fails a DOL audit

🔹 Insider Knowledge – Understands how DOL investigates and enforces H-2B compliance
🔹 Compliance Audits – Reviews payroll, job orders, and contracts for risk exposure
🔹 Training & Guidance – Educates HR teams and managers on H-2B requirements
🔹 Audit Defense – Prepares employers for DOL investigations and responses
🔹 Risk Mitigation – Implements systems to prevent penalties before they occur


👉 Stay compliant. Avoid penalties. Protect your workforce and your business.
