The goal of this site is to provide a working guide to employment laws a dairy farmer in Washington state would need to follow on a routine basis.
This site is not an exhaustive list of all government agencies touching on labor law. Professional licensing, contractor licensing, apprenticeships, or requirements for government contracts may overlap labor law and agriculture, but they do so tangentially and not directly. In those cases, employers should consult with legal experts, workplace consultants, and appropriate government agencies.
