Foreign workers in H-1B must be paid a prevailing wage. The prevailing wage is set by the U.S. Department of Labor depending upon the position offered, qualifications required, and location. Requiring the payment of a prevailing wage is supposed to prevent U.S. workers from being pushed out of employment by cheap foreign labor.
