Solve Your Seasonal Staffing Shortages for Good.

The H-2B visa program provides access to a reliable, returning temporary workforce for your peak seasons. Let us handle the complex visa process so you can focus on your business.

What Is the H-2B Visa?

What Is the H-2B Visa?

The H-2B visa program allows U.S. employers to hire foreign workers to fill temporary, non-agricultural jobs for a limited period. It is the essential tool for businesses that experience predictable seasonal peaks and cannot find enough local workers to meet demand.


Think of it as a guarantee that your busiest seasons will also be your most profitable:

A Temporary, Reliable Solution:The H-2B program is designed specifically for short-term needs. It provides a legal workforce for periods of high demand, one-time events, or intermittent peaks.

Access a Returning Workforce: Many H-2B workers return year after year. This means less time spent on training and more productivity from day one of the season.

Predictable Staffing Costs: Budget with confidence. The H-2B program allows you to plan your seasonal labor costs accurately, cycle after cycle.

The H-2B visa is the proven staffing solution for industries with fluctuating demand, including:


Hospitality (Resorts, Hotels, Restaurants) | Landscaping (Lawn Care, Arborists, Gardeners) | Tourism & Events (Amusement Parks, Ski Resorts, Festivals) | Construction (Short-term projects) | Seafood Processing | Retail (Holiday seasons)
