The US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) has backed the US administration’s action against alleged misuse of the Permanent Labor Certification (PERM) programme, while highlighting the economic contribution of H-1B workers and other legal immigrants.
The statement comes after the US Department of Labor suspended new and pending PERM applications involving several major technology and outsourcing companies, including Microsoft, Adobe, Cognizant, Infosys, Tata Consultancy Services, Wipro, HCL Technologies and Capgemini.
