How to apply
Each order links to its listing on SeasonalJobs.dol.gov, the Department of Labor's official registry, where the employer's recruitment contact and the full job description are published. U.S. workers can apply directly to the employer or through their state workforce agency, which refers applicants to these orders; H-2A employers must keep hiring qualified U.S. applicants until half of the contract period has passed.
Your rights: free housing if you cannot return home each day, free daily transport to the worksite, travel reimbursed at the contract's half-way point and the three-fourths hours guarantee — and no one may charge you for the job. All your rights and how to report a violation →
