Thoroughbred Horse Groom

Work description

THIS TEMPORARY NEED LETTER IS BASED ON THE PETITIONERS FULL PERIOD OF TEMPORARY NEED: OCTOBER-JULY. THE PETIIONER IS NEW TO THE H2B PROGRAM AND IS THEREFORE LATE TO FILE. Dear HLS Certifying Officer: This letter is written to support the temporary labor certification application submitted by Amelia Green Racing LLC on behalf of 11 temporary Thoroughbred Racehorse Grooms at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, Florida from October to July. Amelia Green Racing LLC is engaged in the business of training racehorses for competition. In our busy season, we need multiple grooms to support our training operations. We currently require the services of multiple Thoroughbred Racehorse Grooms in conjunction with our seasonal cycle increase that will begin at an urgent pace on October 1, which marks the beginning of our busiest time of the year due to the commencement of the horse racing season. Our need for additional Thoroughbred Racehorse Groom services is extremely impacted at this time of the year and cannot be met by the available American job market. Because the employment we offer is temporary and not permanent, we are unable to attract the necessary willing and available American workers. Therefore, we turn to the H-2B program to obtain 11 temporary workers to fulfill our seasonal need from October through July. The racing schedule defines our season and constitutes our main revenue-producing cycle, and without proper staffing, we cannot earn the required revenues in this season. Your favorable consideration of our petition for this recurring seasonal need is vital to our business's continued existence and to obtaining necessary revenue. Sincerely, Paula Gillman Finance Manager
