FELS Newsletter |

The FELS Monthly Newsletter keeps agricultural employers up to date on the crucial labor issues of the day. Each issue reviews the current labor topics so employers are able to comply with the countless governmental requirements, court decisions and laws in order to avoid costly mistakes. A few of these important topics are wage & hour, discrimination, immigration and safety. The FELS Monthly Newsletter not only reports on the news but gives suggestions on how to comply. It is common for the newsletter to offer a sample employment policy, form or log to aid employers in meeting the compliance issues. To further illustrate the "hands on" approach, each issue contains a Safety Sheet that can be used as an employee "tailgate session." Each Safety Sheet is written in English and Spanish in terms that employees can relate to in their daily work activities. In addition to receiving the newsletter, FELS Subscribers can access prior issues online. Each newsletter is indexed by topic and title making it easy to research past topics.
