Food processing facilities in eastern counties often sponsor at prevailing wage levels specific to manufacturing rather than traditional farming, affecting visa petition requirements and approval prospects.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored agriculture jobs in North Carolina?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
