Using the New H–2B Temporary Labor
Certification Process for Occupations

AGENCIES: Employment and Training
Administration; Department of Labor.
ACTION: Notice of meeting.
SUMMARY: The Office of Foreign Labor
Certification (OFLC) in the Department
of Labor’s Employment & Training
Administration (ETA) has recently reengineered several of its programs,
including the H–2B temporary
nonagricultural program. In addition,
the Department’s Wage and Hour
Division (WHD) of the Employment
Standards Administration (ESA) has
amended contractual obligations
applicable to employers of workers
subject to Sections 101, 103 and 214(c)
of the Immigration and Nationality Act
(INA).
On December 19, 2008, the
Department published a final rule
redesigning the H–2B temporary
nonagricultural program. The final rule
significantly streamlined the labor
certification process, including
eliminating the duplicative review of H–
2B applications by State Workforce
Agencies and federalizing the provision
of prevailing wage determinations. The
H–2B Final Rule contains two
implementation stages; a transition stage
for all applications with a date of need
before October 1, 2009, and a full
implementation stage for applications
with a date of need on or after October
1, 2009. All employers with a date of
need on or after October 1, 2009 are
required to comply with all assurances
and obligations under the new final
regulations.
In the preamble discussion of the H–
2B Final Rule, the Department
announced that it would provide
stakeholder briefings on the H–2B Final
Rule. ETA is issuing this notice to
announce that it has scheduled two
public briefings to educate stakeholders,
program users, and other interested
members of the public on applying for
H–2B temporary labor certifications
under the full implementation stage of
the re-engineered program and on using
the new ETA–9142 form.
As currently planned, the two
briefings will take place in September of
2009 in Boston and Chicago. This notice
provides the public with locations,
