Understanding the Basics of Agricultural Labor Laws

On April 29, 2022, from 12 noon – 1 pm ET, the Penn State Center for Agricultural and Shale Law alongside the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Business Development Center launched our new educational series, “Understanding Agricultural Law.”

This first session in our series is entitled, “Understanding the Basics of Agricultural Labor Laws.” Every area of labor and employment law seems to have its own unique rules for agricultural workers. Presenters discussed the Fair Labor Standards Act, OSHA, child, migrant and seasonal labor laws, the H-2A program, and much more.
