An audit in the H-2A program refers to the Department of Labor's examination of an employer's temporary labor certification application to ensure compliance with program requirements. The audit process involves reviewing documentation and attestations made by the employer to verify adherence to regulations regarding wages, working conditions, and recruitment efforts. Employers selected for an audit must provide the requested documentation within a specified timeframe, and failure to comply may result in penalties such as revocation of certification or debarment from future participation in the program. The audit aims to maintain program integrity and protect worker rights.
