  • Responsible Labor Standards
    TAMPA, FL 33634 www.watermelon.ag the Fall 2016 Official Newsletter of the NATIONAL WATERMELON ASSOCIATION Labor – Labor – Labor. We need labor to do just about anything and everything in our world of farming, packing and shipping. Where we get it, and how, are seemingly daily challenges and an ever-common occurrence. Government regulations and audits add to the mix, and are designed to assure that employers are doing the right things for the work- ers. None of this is new to us, but it is a growing proposition nonetheless. The editorial column attached is written by a friend, peer and colleague – Tom Nassif, President & CEO of Western Growers. Tom has been at the forefront of the labor debate both in Washington and California for many years, and he is (in my opinion) a voice of sensibility and sound advice. His sentiments are spot-on with what is happening today. We will continue to monitor any new developments, and address them accordingly. Stay posted, and enjoy the reading.
