Subject: Application for Fern Cutter (H-2A) - Case JO-A-300-26208-127388
Qué va a hacer
Texto original en inglés, tal como se registró en el Departamento de Trabajo.
Fern cutters. Worker will cut leatherleaf fern in fields. The worker will be required to cut 20 stems per bunch. The worker must separate bunches by approximate sizes. Large leatherleaf fern bunches should have stems between 25 and 28 inches in length.
Regular leatherleaf fern bunches should have stems between 22 and 24 inches in length. The worker must look for the best-looking leatherleaf sprays and cut it at the bottom with a fern clipper supplied by the owner. The worker will keep the sprays in one hand until they have 20 good stems of the appropriate size, then they will tie it with a rubber band and keep moving forward looking for more stems to cut. They repeat this process over and over until the leader says it's time to bring in the bunches. The worker will load bunches onto a basket for transport to the packing shed. Workers will be provided fern clippers and rubber bands. The worker is responsible for keeping clippers sharp for the best and cleanest cut of each fern stem. When the workers are not cutting ferns, they will be pulling weeds in the same fields. The workers will be paid at the hourly AEWR rate for their time spent pulling weeds. Fern Cutters get paid for piece work or bunches cut per hour unless they are pulling weeds (see above). The average cutter cuts between 30-40 bunches per hour.
Regular Leather Stem (roughly 22-24 inch stems) are 45 cents per 20-stem bunch. Large Leather Stem (roughly 25- 28 inch stems) are 50 cents per 20-stem bunch. We offer an assurance guaranteeing that if the workers’ piece rate earnings in a week are less than the AEW.
