Key definitions and context for the metrics shown above.
Visa Categories Included
H-1B — Specialty occupations. The largest and most common category. Requires a bachelor’s degree or equivalent.
H-1B1 — Professionals from Chile and Singapore under free trade agreements. Smaller program with specific annual caps.
E-3 — Australian nationals in specialty occupations. Similar requirements to H-1B but limited to Australians.
What the Flags Mean
H-1B Dependent Employer self-reports that a high percentage of its workforce in the U.S. are H-1B workers (triggers additional attestations and recruitment requirements).
Willful Violator Employer has previously been found by the Department of Labor to have willfully violated H-1B program rules (triggers stricter requirements for future LCAs).
These are employer-level self-attestations on the LCA form, not individual worker data.
