    The Census Bureau under the Department of Commerce has issued a notice inviting public comments for 60 days on a new information collection process called the Decennial Census Temporary, Intermittent Applicant Information Collection. This will gather data from job applicants for temporary positions related to the upcoming census. Applicants will fill out electronic forms that collect details like personal data, employment status, and job-related qualifications. The aim is to streamline the hiring process for census jobs and improve future recruitment efforts. Public comments will help the Bureau refine its information collection methods to minimize the public's reporting burden.

They're asking people to share their thoughts to make the process easier and better for next time, but they're not giving details about money and some people might find it hard to participate.

    The Employment and Training Administration of the Department of Labor has issued an annual update regarding the charges employers can impose on H-2A workers for meals and reimbursement for travel expenses. For 2025, the maximum charge for meals set by the Department of Labor is $16.28 per day, which an employer can only exceed with authorization. Additionally, H-2A and H-2B employers are obligated to reimburse workers for travel-related costs when they reach 50% of their employment period, ensuring the reimbursements do not exceed the standard per diem rate for meals and lodging in the Continental United States. These updates take effect on March 24, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The government says that people hiring temporary workers from other countries to help on farms can charge up to a certain amount for meals each day, but only if they get special permission to go over that. They also have to help these workers with travel costs when they've worked for a while.
