The Filing Footprint Is Bigger Than One Legal Name

Randstad needs to be read through its public employer-name boundary: Randstad Technologies LLC, Randstad Digital LLC, and Randstad General Partner (US) employer-name variants in the DOL records.

Across FY2020 through FY2025, those rows add up to 7,163 Labor Condition Applications. Including the FY2026 partial-year rows, the total reaches 7,280. FY2025 alone accounts for 750 LCA filings.

The USCIS series shown here totals 3,894 approvals across the available approval rows. Where FY2025 rows are initial approvals only, the page labels them that way. LCA filings are not headcount, hired workers, or proof that a specific American worker was replaced.

The Employer Boundary Drives the Count

Randstad Technologies, LLC is the largest filing name, but the full public footprint depends on combining the affiliated employer rows used for this page.

The peak year in the full-year series is FY2021, with 2,013 filings. FY2026 currently shows 117 rows and should be read as a partial-year value, not as a final decline.

Workforce Share Not Used
Metric intentionally suppressed

This site no longer charts H-1B filings as a share of workforce. The ratio can blur U.S. employees, global employees, contractors, and offshore delivery headcount into one denominator.

Rows with a disclosed U.S.-employee denominator available here: 0. The analysis now uses filings, approvals, wage, worksite, and title concentration instead.

Workforce Context, Kept in Bounds

Randstad is a staffing company: it does not build products, it rents people. Its U.S. visa filings run through Randstad Technologies and, since the 2023 rebrand, Randstad Digital, which aggregators track at 1,729 LCAs covering roughly 3,435 positions with a 2025 certification rate of 100%: 699 certified, 0 denied. The worksite list on this page, Charlotte, Plano, Irving, Frisco, is a client map of banks and telecoms. When a staffing intermediary can sponsor visa workers at scale and place them anywhere, the H-1B program's specialty-occupation premise is doing no work at all.

The public workforce story belongs next to the filing volume, but it does not turn every LCA into a replacement claim.

Staffing placements are lawful under the program's current rules; the filing volumes and perfect certification rates shown here are from public DOL records.

The Labor-Market Signal Is in the Job Mix

The leading occupation is Software Developers, Applications, and the leading job title is Senior Software Developer; those roles show what part of the labor market the filings reach.

For FY2025, the average H-1B wage in the filtered salary extract is $131,607, compared with an average prevailing-wage benchmark of $106,610. That is a $24,997 spread over the legal wage floor.

Green Cards Add the Long-Term Tie

The PERM layer adds 971 labor-certification cases from FY2020 through FY2025, including 125 in FY2025.

PERM records are a different process from H-1B petitions, but they matter because the sponsorship timeline can tie a worker to an employer for years.

Caveat: LCA filings are not H-1B petitions or hired workers. FY2025 USCIS hub rows are initial approvals only, so denial rates are not computed for those rows.
