The Department of Labor will conduct a virtual listening session for employers and their representatives to gather input about possible changes to the regulations governing the H-2A visa program for temporary agricultural employment of foreign workers. Our goals are to listen, engage the public, and hear from many voices who could be impacted by potential changes to the regulations. 

We are interested in hearing about the experiences of employers, so we encourage employer representatives to include their members’ perspectives in their remarks or to invite employers to share their experiences directly. 

We invite you to join the virtual listening sessions for employer representatives with Department of Labor officials. This is a public event. Registrants will be emailed a Zoom link one day before the event begins. Please direct any questions to WHD-Events@dol.gov.

DOL VETS is hosting a webinar on Thursday, November 17 from 2-3:00pm ET titled, ‘Using Registered Apprenticeship to Attract, Train, and Retain Veteran Talent.’ 

Register for the event and share it with your stakeholders.

DOL VETS WEBINAR - 
Summary
The Department of Labor Veterans' Employment and Training Service (DOL VETS) is hosting a webinar in support of National Apprenticeship Week that will highlight three employers who are utilizing the Registered Apprenticeship model to attract, train, and retain veterans. 

Learn how Adaptive Construction Solutions, McCarthy Holdings, and Amazon Web Services have structured their programs, how they are using federal and state funding to reduce costs, to include WIOA, DOL grants and the VA VET TEC program, and how they are engaging with the workforce system and other resources to diversify their employees. 

VETS will highlight their Regional Veteran Employment Coordinators and how they assist employers who want to find and hire veterans, and the DOL Office of Apprenticeship will share the steps needed to register an apprenticeship program of your own.

We hope you will join us for this great opportunity to learn about best practices from employers who know how to successfully recruit and retain veterans, leverage partnerships, and utilize resources that provide positive outcomes for their companies.
