Current Narrative:
During its statewide outreach efforts, the State merit Outreach worker provides presentations and associated material to agricultural employers as it pertains to the Agricultural Recruitment System. The SMA also reaches out to agricultural employers through workshops and informational meetings as scheduling permits.
DWD continues to provide agricultural employers assistance with their labor needs. When local workers are not available, DWD provides technical assistance to growers to aid them in accessing the interstate agricultural recruitment system. Our local office staff continues to provide farm labor contractors assistance in preparing application for certification with the U.S. Department of Labor. Additionally, the SWA will attempt to use its relationships with existing entities to branch out and network with similar organizations at the rate of 2-3 per calendar quarter.
