DOL published new AEWRs in the Federal Register this morning. Below is a link to DOL's website with the updated Table of Adverse Effect Wage Rates. These new hourly rates become effective on December 29, 2021. H-2A employers must pay the new AEWR to all H-2A workers and any U.S. worker engaged in corresponding employment for work performed on and after the effective date. The new hourly AEWR applies regardless of the original wage rate stated in the job order and H-2A application. There is contract language in every job order to cover the AEWR change. Please update your payroll system to reflect the correct rate for the pay period covering the effective date.
