Labor Condition Application Notices

An employer that intends to hire a foreign national in H-1B (Temporary Worker) status must file a Labor Condition Application (LCA) (Form ETA-9035) with the U.S. Department of Labor, as well as provide notice to U.S. workers. Notice must be provided no less than 30 days before the date the employer files the LCA. 

If an employer chooses to provide notice electronically, the employer must (electronically) notify all workers at the place of employment and in the occupational classification for which H-1B workers are sought. This notice may be provided by individual e-mail messages, by posting on an appropriate electronic bulletin board, or by other appropriate methods. 

West Virginia University and West Virginia University Research Corporation provide notice electronically. To access all available electronic notices, please scan the QR code or visit the following link: https://www.laborless.io/public/group/KQ98R
