The effective date for final rule concerning H-2B wage methodology postponed by DOL
The Wage Rule revises the methodology for calculating the prevailing wages to be paid to H–2B workers and U.S. workers recruited in connection with a temporary labor certification for use in petitioning the DHS to employ a non-immigrant worker in the H–2B status. DOL has informed that in consideration of the two pending challenges to the Wage Rule and its new effective date, it is postponing the effective date of the rule from September 30, 2011, until November 30, 2011.
The Department of Labor has announced a 60-day postponement of the effective date for the final rule concerning the wage methodology for the Temporary Non-Agricultural Employment H-2B program, postponing the effective date from September 30, 2011 to November 30, 2011.
