Summary

Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act Amendments of 1981 - Amends the Farm Labor Contractor Registration Act of 1963 to include migrant worker hiring, referring, or related services performed by any labor organization within the definition of "farm labor contractor." Excludes from such definition: (1) any agricultural producer or processor who engages migrant workers in his or her own operations (currently must personally engage in such activities); (2) any nonprofit agricultural association or cooperative and employees; (3) any bona fide employee who engages in such activity for his or her employer (currently full-time or regular employees who engage only incidentally in such activities); and (4) any person who supplies students or other persons whose principal occupation is nonagricultural to perform certain seed industry work (currently only applies to corn and sorghum with a maximum four-week work period). Redefines "migrant worker" to mean a seasonal or temporary agricultural worker who cannot normally return to his or her domicile after each working day (currently anyone employed in agriculture). Requires payroll records to be kept for three years.
