NEW DHS & DOL REGULATIONS: HIGHER PREVAILING WAGES AND OTHER CHANGES FOR H-1B GREEN CARD EMPLOYEES

Chugh, LLP Partner and Attorney Diya Mathews provides an overview of two recent regulations from the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Labor which are expected to have far-reaching consequences for employers of H-1B workers, green card holders, and other foreign workers.

In addition to higher prevailing wages for H-1B, green card, E-3, and H-1B1 workers, the regulations will also tighten requirements for H-1B employers. At this critical time, Diya also covers next steps that employers can take to cope with these regulatory changes as they await possible litigation.
