A Jamaican worker. for example. can earn more in 6 weeks picking apples in the U.S. than can be earned during the rest of the year in Jamaica. While not conceding the claimed greater productivity. foreign workers do provide the employer with a worker who is more compliant. The worker may only remain in this country so long as he is employed by the employer who sponsored his admission. A worker who is fired for any reason is subject to deportation and not likely to be invited back. Further. once certified by the Department. a grower may recruit a foreign work force that is all male and or prime working age. Such criteria may not. of course. be legally applied with respect to domestic workers.
