What This Measures

DOL requires every Labor Condition Application to state whether the H-1B worker's actual worksite is the petitioning employer's own location or a client's site under a staffing or consulting arrangement. This page reports that field only, it is not a measure of job security, legitimacy, or employer quality. Third-party placement is a normal, lawful business model in IT staffing and consulting, and a low or 0% rate simply means an employer's H-1B roles are filed for its own offices rather than client engagements.

What it can tell you: whether an offer from Northwestern University is more likely to mean working at Northwestern University's own office, or being placed at a separate client company's site.
