Federation of Employers and Workers of America (FEWA)

FEWA is the national voice of the existing legal guest worker programs' community (H-2A and H-2B). FEWA is a non-profit association originally created to assist employers and workers in labor-intensive service industries. Now employer members' industries include: Construction, Restaurants, Lodging, Golf, Marine Salvage, Landscape, Nurseries, Agriculture, Amusement Parks, and Shrimping to name a few. Specifically, FEWA is dedicated to improving business conditions, building awareness, and providing services in the areas of labor retention and management. FEWA has grown to nearly 7,500 members and collectively has secured extensive legislative success through coalition work in our nation’s Capitol. FEWA provides several programs and services to help member employers and workers. One of the many services provided is assistance with the federal guest worker programs such as the H-2A and H-2B. These programs allow employers, who qualify with the United States Department of Labor (USDOL) and are approved by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), to hire temporary migrant labor from almost anywhere in the world.
