Two Hearts Home Health LLC – $10.07/Hour

Please note the newspaper advertising discussed below was completed in the Saturdayweekend edition of the Midland Reporter Telegram.br br The employer Two Hearts Home Health LLC made a good faith effort to recruit U.S. workers by placing advertisements in the Midland ReporterTelegram which publishes five days a week. Its 2020 announcement of this fact states The decision has been made to consolidate the publishing of five editions Tuesday through Friday and a weekend edition on Saturday. The Midland ReporterTelegram is the newspaper of general circulation for the area of intended employment, which is hubbed in Odessa, Texas daily local travel within a four county area due to the nature of the position is discussed elsewhere in this filing, but the companys office is located in Odessa. MidlandOdessa is a combined statistical area made up of the Midland MSA and Odessa MSA and comprising of three counties Martin, Midland, and Ector.br br In this case, the Midland ReporterTelegrams weekend edition, which publishes on Saturdays, is functionally the equivalent of a Sundayonly newspaper edition. See, In the Matter of Earthbound Farm, 2012PER00287 May 9, 2014. In that case, the qualifying newspaper was not a mere weekly publication that remains in distribution throughout a weekend, but rather a local newspaper that publishes six days out of the week, with the sixth date of publication explicitly stated to be a twoday weekend edition covering both Saturday and Sunday. Id. The Midland ReporterTelegram is not a small secondary newspaper published in the suburbs when a major metropolitan areas largest newspaper is also available. Rather, it is the most widelycirculated newspaper in the area of intended employment, which is somewhat isolated in West Texas and with no other cities nearby have a newspaper where a Sundayonly print edition is published. The Midland ReporterTelegram is the newspaper used in the MidlandOdessa area on the weekends for classified advertisements and the purpose of the weekend edition is functionally indistinguishable from a newspaper that runs a unique Sunday edition.
