SB204 revises Nevada employment laws to allow H-2A visa herders and employers to agree on excluding certain periods from wages.
SB204 modifies Nevada's wage regulations to allow H-2A visa herders and their employers to enter into written agreements to exclude certain periods from the herder's wages. These periods include meals, sleep, and other free time, provided they meet specific duration requirements. If a period is interrupted by a call to duty, it must be counted as hours worked for which compensation must be paid. The bill exempts employers of H-2A visa herders from certain recordkeeping requirements and mandates enforcement and prosecution of violations by the Labor Commissioner.
