The "Worksite State" in the H-2A program refers to any state where the agricultural work is anticipated to be performed as specified in the employer's application for temporary labor certification. This includes all states where the employer expects to have worksites, and it is crucial for the State Workforce Agency (SWA) to circulate job orders to these states to ensure adequate recruitment efforts. The worksite state plays a significant role in the recruitment process, as job orders must be shared with states identified as traditional or expected labor supply states. This ensures that U.S. workers have the opportunity to apply for these positions before foreign workers are hired.
