BALCA overturned the Certifying Officer+s denial of the labor certification

BALCA overturned the Certifying Officer’s denial of the labor certification, finding that the regulations that control placement of Sunday ads versus local and ethnic ads differ, and that the employer was not required to place the local ad in the newspaper “most likely to bring responses.”

Applying the reasoning from Matter of A Cut Above Ceramic Tile, BALCA reversed the Certifying Officer’s denial of the labor certification, finding that an employer is not required to retain or provide proof of publication of its State Workforce Agency (SWA) job order which can be sufficiently documented by listing the start and end dates of the job order on the ETA Form 9089.

BALCA Declines to Penalize Employer for Timing Inconsistency in 656.17(e)(2)

Where the employer filed the ETA Form 9089 within six months of the SWA job order, but notwithin 180 days, BALCA overturned the Certifying Officer’s denial, finding that it was unfair to punish the employer because of a potential conflict between the terms “6 months” and “180 days” found at 20 CFR §656.17(e)(2), which provides the timing requirements for when an employer must place an SWA job order and file an application for a nonprofessional occupation.

BALCA ordered that certification be granted, concluding that individuals “matched” by a State Workforce Agency (SWA) to a job order are not considered applicants for the PERM position because they have not affirmatively applied for the job.

BALCA reversed the denial, finding that the omission of a Spanish language requirement in the Notice of Filing (NOF) was not by itself fatal to the application where the overall text of the NOF was sufficient to apprise U.S. workers of the job opportunity.

BALCA Upholds Denial for Failure to Specify “Terms and Conditions”

  1. BALCA affirmed the denial of the PERM application, finding that by not including the benefit of free housing in its advertisements and Notice of Filing, the employer offered terms and conditions of employment less favorable than those offered to the alien, violating 20 CFR §656.17(f)(7).
