Will be reaching out to folks to let them know about the new date and location.
Local producers, farmers, and ranchers face numerous challenges in complying with the unique labor laws and regulations in the agricultural sector. Running a small business means wearing many hats, and sometimes the hardest part is knowing where to look for answers. Join the US Department of Labor's Wage & Hour Division and us as we share an overview of federal labor laws and explain how they affect local producers and their businesses.
Topics covered will include:
- Labor Regulations
- Wages, Hours, Benefits
- Youth Labor Regulations
- Volunteer Labor
- General Employment Regulations
- Independent Contractor Requirements
- Termination and Final Pay
- Labor Regulations and H-2A Visas
This is a great opportunity to meet with local representatives from the US Department of Labor’s Wage & Hour Division. They will provide helpful information about federal labor laws, explain how these laws affect local producers and their businesses, and answer questions.
