What is a California Farm Labor Contractor Bond?
It’s a license requirement that every farm labor contractor must obtain before a license is issued by the Division of Labor Standards Enforcement.
This bond is required to make sure that the farm labor contractor will obey the provisions of Chapter 3, Part 6, Division 2 of the Labor Code of the State of California.
And if any of those provisions are violated, this bond will serve as a guarantee that the person who has been affected by the farm labor contractor’s violation will be paid.
The violations include, but not limited to, the following:
- Failure to train an agricultural employee at the time of hire

- Failure to give the least minimum training to an agricultural employee
- Failure to provide a record of the training and a copy of the sexual harassment pamphlet specified by the Department of Fair Employment and Housing

This bond is obligated by Section 1684 of the Labor Code of the State of California.
How much does a California Farm Labor Contractor Bond cost?
The bond cost will start at 1% of the bond amount for farm labor contractors who have excellent credit scores.
The bond amount will depend on the farm labor contractor’s annual payroll for all employees.

| $50,0000 | $500,000 to $2,000,000 |

How does a California Farm Labor Contractor Bond work?
This bond has 3 parties:
- Principal – farm labor contractor
- Obligee – State of California
- Surety – surety bond provider
Under the terms of this bond, the Principal must comply with the relevant laws of the State as well as the conditions of the license. The Surety will assure the Obligee (beneficiary of the bond) that the Principal will fulfill all the obligations.
If not, the Obligee can file a claim against the bond. The Surety will first investigate the validity of the claim. Once the Surety has paid the Obligee, the Principal must reimburse the Surety of the full amount.
