Introduction: the reporter learned from the Ministry of commerce that recently, some domestic media said that the United States opened the labor market to China and Chinese citizens could go to the United States to work in agriculture After verification by the Chinese Embassy and consulate in the United States, this is not the case Recently, some domestic media in ESP said that the United States opened up the labor market to China for the first time, and could go to the United States for farming as long as 140000 yuan was paid It also said that a company in Chongqing was recruiting workers to go to a farm in Florida, the United States, and the treatment was generous For this reason, the Ministry of Commerce specially asked the Chinese Embassy in the United States and the Consulate General in Houston to verify An official in charge of labor affairs in Florida, the US, said the authenticity of the report was questionable According to the U.S labor law, the recruitment of foreign workers must first obtain approval documents from the U.S labor office and the immigration office, mainly engaged in short-term seasonal work The U.S official said no U.S employers had applied to recruit temporary farm workers from China until now, except for the approval of a farm in the first half of last year to recruit six temporary farm workers from China, which had already expired According to the lawyer who specializes in immigration business in the United States, theoretically, the employment of temporary farm workers from China by American farms is allowed by the labor law of the United States, but the actual operation is very difficult, far less cost-effective than the recruitment of farm workers from their own country or neighboring countries In the current economic downturn in the United States, it is questionable whether temporary visas for foreign agricultural workers can be obtained The Ministry of Commerce of ESP is responsible for China's foreign labor service cooperation business Officials of the Ministry of Commerce remind Chinese citizens that they must make careful decisions in order to avoid being cheated ESP
