Instrucciones del empleador
Applicants may apply at and be referred by any local office of a State Workforce Agency (SWA). The SWA is responsible for informing applicants of all terms and conditions of employment and notifying the employer in advance of any referrals. If appropriate, the SWA should furnish translator services. Applicants should thoroughly familiarize themselves with the job specifications and terms and conditions of employment in the Clearance Order before contacting the employer or seeking a referral. Only workers who meet all of the qualifications for employment, who are work authorized, and who are willing and able to perform the work, with or without reasonable accommodations, and who will be available at the time and place needed for the duration of the contract, should contact or be referred to the employer. Applicants, Workforce Agency Personnel, Walk-ins, Hires, etc. may report to the worksite listed on the ETA 790 Monday through Friday 10:00 am- 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm PST.

If a Job Service Office will be referring several applicants at the same time, it is requested that the employer be advised in advance so that sufficient time may be allowed to schedule interviews. Applicants will be interviewed in person or by telephone and job offers will be extended to qualified, eligible applicants. Original documents (no copies) of identity and employment authorization sufficient to complete an I-9 Form as required by the Immigration Reform and Control Act must be in possession of the worker at the time the worker reports for work and will be examined by the employer as a condition for completing the hiring process. Referring local offices should fully apprise workers of this requirement. The employer will review each applicant's completed application individually immediately after the interview.
The employer will accept referrals from any source and continue to cooperate with the SWA by accepting referrals of all eligible U.S. workers who apply (or on whose behalf an application is made) for the job opportunity until the end of the recruitment period as specified in the job order. Applicants and referrals will not be considered until a completed and signed application is provided to the employer indicating that the worker has received a written copy of the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker employment disclosures (or contract containing such disclosures) required by law.
