SB 204 Nevada Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Revises provisions relating to employment. (BDR 53-724)

SB 204 modifies Nevada wage laws to apply to H-2A visa herders - temporary agricultural workers who perform livestock herding or production on the range under federal H-2A visas. It allows employers and these workers to create written agreements excluding meal, sleep, and personal time periods from wages, provided interruptions by work require paid compensation. The bill exempts employers from maintaining detailed daily hour records for herders, instead permitting the written agreement to establish total weekly hours. Violations are classified as misdemeanors, and the Labor Commissioner enforces these provisions.
