Important
The Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act requires that farm labor contractors subject to this law who transport any migrant
and seasonal agricultural workers for agricultural employment obtain from the U.S. Department of Labor a certificate of registration. Applicants
for a certificate of registration must produce evidence that the vehicles they use for this purpose meet Department of Labor requirements.
Provided below is a list of major items which should be chocked. On the reverse side of this form is a brief summary of the Department of Labor
standards for each of these items. A check (
) should be placed adjacent to each item which meets these minimum standards. In those
instances where an item does not meet these standards, necessary repairs must be completed before the transportation of migrant and seasonal
agricultural workers will be authorized. This form must be properly completed and signed, certifying that the vehicle meets Department of Labor
requirements. This inspection must be performed by an independent inspection company not affiliated with the appliant.
This form (WH-514a) is to be used for the inspection of any passenger car or station wagon regardless of the distance traveled and for other
vehicles used to transport migrant and seasonal agricultural workers (except day-haul operations) for distances of seventy five (75) miles or less.
vehicles used in day-haul operations and those used to transport workers for more than 75 miles are subject to Department of Transportation
standards. Form WH-514 must be used for inspection of such vehicles.
If the farm labor contractor possesses a valid current State vehicle safety inspection sticker from the jurisdiction in which the vehicle is
registered, the items listed below need not be checked. However, in the Remarks section, the farm labor contractor must identify the State
where the inspection was performed, list the appropriate State vehicle safety inspection number and license tag number and then sign and date
the form.
