The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) has reported that some staffing changes are expected in the near future. Eugene Caso, who is currently the Director of the Atlanta National Processing Center (NPC, Atlanta), will be moving to a different position within the DOL. Dorie Fay, the H2A and H2B Program Director for the NPC, Atlanta, is retiring. William Carlson, former Chief of the Division of Foreign Labor Certifications (FLC) is returning from his DOL position in Boston to a new FLC position at the DOL in Washington DC. Mr. Carlson's name may be familiar to long-time MurthyDotCom and MurthyBulletin readers, as he was instrumental in developing PERM as a replacement for the prior labor certification and reduction-in-recruitment processing system. His transfer to the Boston position was reported in our August 12, 2005 MurthyBulletin article, DOL Labor Certification Leader to Change Roles, available on MurthyDotCom. In a move that also may be important to our readers, Stephen Stefanko, previously a regional director and currently the Director of the Backlog Processing Center (BPC) in Philadelphia, will be retiring during the first week of July 2006.

Whenever there are changes among leadership at the DOL, there are usually some changes in processes that follow. While some changes may be positive, it is possible that some will prove challenging. We at the Murthy Law Firm will monitor this situation and share our views as to whether these staffing changes prompt other changes that will affect our readers.
