Harmonized US H-2A Visa Performance Disclosure Data

This project harmonizes H-2A visa performance data from the U.S. Department of Labor's Foreign Labor Certification Office. The raw data files for fiscal years 2008-2024 were retrieved from: https://www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/foreign-labor/performance and the data for fiscal years 2006 and 2007 were obtained from a previous (and no longer maintained) version of this website: https://www.flcdatacenter.com/CaseH2A.aspx. The final cleaned dataset includes key variables from these datasets with harmonized variable names. This dataset, for fiscal years 2006-2024, is included in the Output folder. Please see the Readme.md file for instructions on how to update this file with future years of data as they become available, or for details on how to add additional variables into the final cleaned dataset.
