(a)Requirement of assisted recruitment. If, as a result of audit or otherwise, the CO determines that a violation has occurred that does not warrant debarment, the CO may require the employer to engage in assisted recruitment for a defined period of time for any future Application for Temporary Employment Certification.
(b)Notification of assisted recruitment. The CO will notify the employer (and its attorney or agent, if applicable) in writing of the assisted recruitment that will be required of the employer for a period of up to 2 years from the date the notice is issued. The notification will state the reasons for the imposition of the additional requirements, state that the employer's agreement to accept the conditions will constitute their inclusion as bona fide conditions and terms of an application for temporary employment certification, and offer the employer an opportunity to request an administrative review. If administrative review is requested, the procedures in § 655.61 apply.
(c)Assisted recruitment. The assisted recruitment process will be in addition to any recruitment required of the employer by §§ 655.41 through 655.46 and may consist of, but is not limited to, one or more of the following:
(1)Requiring the employer to submit a draft advertisement to the CO for review and approval at the time of filing the Application for Temporary Employment Certification;
(2)Designating the sources where the employer must recruit for U.S. workers and directing the employer to place the advertisement(s) in such sources;
(3)Extending the length of the placement of the advertisement and/or job order;
(4)Requiring the employer to notify the CO and the SWA in writing when the advertisement(s) are placed;
(5)Requiring an employer to perform any additional assisted recruitment directed by the CO;
(6)Requiring the employer to provide proof of the publication of all advertisements as directed by the CO, in addition to providing a copy of the job order;
(7)Requiring the employer to provide proof of all SWA referrals made in response to the job order;
(8)Requiring the employer to submit any proof of contact with all referrals and past U.S. workers; and/or
(9)Requiring the employer to provide any additional documentation verifying it conducted the assisted recruitment as directed by the CO.
(d)Failure to comply. If an employer materially fails to comply with requirements ordered by the CO under this section, the certification will be denied and the employer and/or its attorney or agent may be debarred under § 655.73.
