Want to offer health care to your H-2A and H-2B workers?
A representative from Alliant Federation can explain the options: doctor visits by phone or video in Spanish, and temporary health insurance. Your company can pay for the whole crew with one monthly invoice, or recommend it so each worker enrolls and pays on their own.
