The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act provides that no individual may perform farm labor contracting activities without a certificate of registration. Form WH-530 is the application form that provides the Department of Labor with the information necessary to issue certificates specifying the farm labor contracting activities authorized. In addition, certain vehicle and safety standards are required of farm labor contractor applicants and such data is collected via forms WH-514, WH-514a and WH-515. This ICR proposes to combine collections under 1235-0016 and 1235-0017.
