| 2013-21132 | Wage Methodology for the Temporary Non-Agricultural Employment H-2B Program; Delay of Effective Date | Rule | The Department of Labor (Department or we/us) is delaying indefinitely the effective date of the Wage Methodology for the Temporary Non-agricultural Employment H-2B Program final rule (2011 Wage Rule), in order to comply with recurrent legislation that prohibits us from using any funds to implement it, and to permit time for consideration of public comments sought in conjunction with an interim final rule published April 24, 2013, 78 FR 24047. The 2011 Wage Rule revised the methodology by which the Department calculates the prevailing wages to be paid to H-2B workers and United States workers recruited in connection with a temporary labor certification for use in petitioning the Department of Homeland Security to employ a nonimmigrant worker in H-2B status. The 2011 Wage Rule was originally scheduled to become effective on January 1, 2012, and the effective date has been extended a number of times, most recently to October 1, 2013. We are now delaying the effective date of the 2011 Wage Rule indefinitely. This rule does not affect the Interim Final Rule, 78 FR 24047, published on April 24, 2013, establishing the current prevailing wage methodology for the H-2B program; that rule remains in effect. | 2013-08-30 | 2013 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2013/08/30/2013-21132/wage-methodology-for-the-temporary-non-agricultural-employment-h-2b-program-delay-of-effective-date | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2013-08-30/pdf/2013-21132.pdf | Labor Department; Employment and Training Administration | 271,133 | The Department of Labor (Department or we/us) is delaying indefinitely the effective date of the Wage Methodology for the Temporary Non-agricultural Employment H-2B Program final rule (2011 Wage Rule), in order to comply with recurrent legislation that... |
