339 H-2B worker approvals were reported for employers classified in Construction with worksites recorded in Alabama in fiscal 2026 through June 30, 2026, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. USCIS approved all 339 decided workers for the sector at these worksites, resulting in an approval rate of 100%. The count covers 19 petitioners named in the data. These counts reflect workers represented in USCIS initial approval and denial decisions on H-2B petitions and are not counts of petitions, visa issuances or individual people. The state shown is based on the worksite recorded on the linked Labor Department labor certification, not where the employer is located. The industry, Construction, is the two-digit NAICS sector associated with the employer on that certification and describes the employer's industry, not the workers' occupation. The figures cover fiscal 2026 through June 30, 2026, a partial year.
