WINDOM, Minn. – The Canada-owned HyLife pork producer said it will arrange transportation back to their home country for 450 immigrant workers who are losing their jobs in the pending shutdown of the company’s Windom slaughterhouse. These workers are mostly from Guanajuato, Mexico. They hold H-2B visas that require them to have jobs or leave the country. About 550 other HyLife employees at Windom are U.S. citizens.
