DOL reminds South Florida farmworkers of their rights under federal child labor, wages, crew transportation and field sanitation laws [03/24/2011]
The U.S. Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division is reminding agricultural workers in South Florida that their rights are protected by the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Occupational Safety and Health Act’s Field Sanitation Standard. Virtually all employees engaged in agriculture are covered by federal law because they produce goods for interstate commerce.
