ADDITIONAL 
PROVISIONS
The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) allows for the employment of\
 temporary, non-immigrant workers in nonagricultural 
labor or services (H-2B WORKERS). Department of Homeland Security (DH\
S) regulations allow for the employment of 	H-2B 	
WORKERS	 only if the wages and working conditions of U.S. workers would not be a\
dversely affected.	
Two types of workers have rights under this program:	
• 	H-2B WORKERS	 and	
• 	OTHER WORKERS	 performing substantially the same work included in the H-2B job order or substantially the    	
same work as that performed by the H-2B workers, except for certain long\
-term existing employees and certain 
employees under a collective bargaining agreement or individual employment contract.	
Workers who believe their rights under the program have been violated may file confidential complaints.	
For additional information:	
UNDER THE H-2B PROGRAM	
WH1505 FY2018	
The Department of Labor Appropriations Act, 2016, Division H, Title I of Public Law 114-113 (“2016 DOL Appropriations Act”), provides that the Department 
of Labor (“Department”) may not use any funds to enforce the definition of corresponding employment found in 20 CFR 655.5 or the three-fourths 
guarantee rule definition found in 20 CFR 655.20, or any reference thereto (see Sec. 113). This appropriations rider has been included in the continuing 
resolutions that have passed throughout FY2017 and FY2018, and the Department remains prohibited from enforcing these provisions, or any reference 
thereto. However, the 2016 DOL Appropriations Act and continuing resolutions did not vacate these regulatory provisions, and they remain in effect, thus 
imposing a legal duty on H-2B employers, even though the Department will not use any funds to enforce them until such time as the rider may be lifted.
