What is H-2B?

The H-2B program is a legal, non-immigrant foreign worker visa program available to non-agricultural employers with a temporary seasonal or peakload labor need.

Who Can Use H-2B?

Any U.S. non-agricultural employer that demonstrates a seasonal or temporary recurring labor need may apply for the H‐2B program. AgWorks specializes in H-2B industries related to agriculture and horticulture, including:

  • Landscape contractors and lawn maintenance companies
  • Tree planters and reforestation companies
  • Manufacturers of seasonal goods
  • Seasonal retailers and wholesalers, including nurseries and retail garden centers
  • Food and seafood processors
  • Produce packing houses
  • Pinestraw gatherers

Why Choose H-2B?

Reliable Labor

The H-2B program provides a way to link capable, reliable and legal labor to employers that have a temporary labor need. H-2B workers typically return to the same employer year after year, providing essential help nationwide. For decades, AgWorks has helped employers connect with over 15,000 workers each year.

Legal Labor

Employers with temporary labor needs face many obstacles in today’s global economy, including access to a reliable and legal workforce. As national security concerns increase, workers who have been involved with seasonal or temporary work in the past may no longer be available. The H-2B program is a dependable and lawful avenue to obtain legal workers.

Grow Your Business

A dependable workforce is an essential component to successful business growth. AgWorks helps hundreds of clients each year to  grow their businesses using the H-2B program. A stable workforce provides employers the confidence needed to expand their operations and to meet increased market demand.

Our passion to help our clients drives us to know each employer and identify their individual needs. This hands on approach maximizes benefits and minimizes potential liabilities of the H-2B program. The process is neither easy nor routine, but AgWorks has the experience, knowledge and commitment to customer service to help with a successful season using the H-2B program.
