“Labor Brain bridges the gap between good intentions and confident compliance.”

Kalen Fraser, Owner

    Experience and insight you can trust.

    Labor Brain was founded by Kalen Fraser, a former federal labor investigator with years of experience enforcing the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Migrant and Seasonal Agricultural Worker Protection Act, and the H-2A and H-2B guestworker programs. Her time in the field offered a clear view of how labor laws are applied—and where employers often face the greatest challenges.

    One thing became evident during her tenure: most employers want to follow the law and treat their employees fairly. But with increasingly complex regulations and shifting interpretations, even the most diligent businesses can struggle to keep up.

    Built on that insight and Kalen’s regulatory experience, Labor Brain delivers clear, effective compliance support for employers of all sizes. For those working with the H-2A and H-2B programs, the H Brain™ Learning video series offers focused, practical training to simplify the guestworker process.

    By combining firsthand enforcement knowledge with strategic tools, Labor Brain helps employers stay compliant, protect their workforce, and avoid costly mistakes.

    We are very thankful for the Labor Brain.
    Kalen has been very informative to help explain each step of the H2A investigation process as well as how to better move forward with our agricultural workers within the H2A program. We are so thankful she was recommended to us and couldn’t recommend the services of the Labor Brain enough.

    Kalen's knowledge was beyond the knowledge of our investigator, which saved us thousands of dollars. She was incredibly responsive to every question I had throughout the entire investigation.
