Opinion by Judge MILAN D. SMITH, JR.; Concurrence by Judge BERZON.
OPINION
M. SMITH, Circuit Judge:William Castle, formerly an Arizona state prisoner,1 appeals the district court’s entry of judgment in favor of defendants Eurofresh Inc., the State of Arizona (the State), the Arizona Department of Corrections (ADC), and certain officials of the ADC.2 Castle alleges that the defendants violated the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), 42 U.S.C. §§ 12131-12134, and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (RA), 29 U.S.C. § 794, by failing to reasonably accommodate his disability. We conclude that Castle’s claims against Eurofresh were properly dismissed. Castle was not Eurofresh’s “employee” under Title I of the ADA, and Eurofresh does not receive federal financial assistance, as it must in order to subject it to the requirements of the RA. However, we reverse the judgment in favor of the State Defendants, because those defendants may be held liable for acts of disability discrimination committed by one of their contractors. We therefore remand Castle’s claims against the State Defendants for further proceedings required by this opinion.
BACKGROUND
Castle was convicted of theft and perpetuating a scheme or artifice to defraud in violation of Ariz.Rev.Stat. §§ 13-1802, 13-2310. He was sentenced to a ten-year prison term and placed in the custody of the ADC.
Arizona law requires all able-bodied inmates in ADC’s custody to “engage in hard labor for not less than forty hours per week.” Ariz.Rev.Stat. § 31-251(A). Most inmates satisfy this requirement by participating in the ADC’s Work Incentive Pay Program (WIPP). Inmate wages under the WIPP range from ten to fifty cents per hour, although inmates can earn raises for good performance. Some inmates, however, receive significantly more remunerative work assignments through a separate convict labor program run by Arizona Correctional Industries (ACI).3 See Ariz.Rev. Stat. §§ 41-1621-1630. ACI contracts with private companies to provide them with a convict labor force. One company that contracts with ACI is Eurofresh, which describes itself as “America’s largest greenhouse operation,” capable of *904growing 200 million pounds of “hydroponic tomatoes” each year.
Castle began picking tomatoes for Euro-fresh in July 2008 at a greenhouse located approximately sixty miles from the prison where he was incarcerated. The job was physically strenuous — Castle was required to be on his feet for his entire seven hour shift and often had to push a 600 pound tomato cart. Toward the end of August 2008, Castle began experiencing “intolerable pain and swelling” in his left ankle after working for two or more hours at Eurofresh. Castle had seriously injured his ankle decades earlier during a parachute accident that occurred while Castle attended the United States Army Airborne School.4
Because of his pain, Castle asked a Eu-rofresh supervisor if he could take short breaks during the work day to rest his ankle. According to Castle, the supervisor indicated that Castle would be fired if he insisted on taking breaks. Castle continued working at Eurofresh, but sought medical treatment for his injury from the ADC. One of Castle’s medical providers suggested that he ask for a job change or accommodation.
In October 2008, Castle sent certified letters to both ACI and Eurofresh informing them that he could not walk or stand for long periods without experiencing extreme pain. He asked to be provided with a position at Eurofresh “that does not require walking for long periods of time, as well as pushing heavy carts.” Castle later met with representatives of both Eu-rofresh and ACI to discuss his disability. He again suggested that he be reassigned to a different job, such as operating box or label machinery in the “pack house.” A Eurofresh manager responded that there were no other positions available to inmate laborers,5 but that Eurofresh and ACI would take Castle’s request “under advisement.” Castle claims that he was later informed that no accommodation would be made, and that his only option was to quit his position at Eurofresh. Defendants claim that Eurofresh offered to promote Castle to a “de-leafer” position,6 but that Castle refused the offer. No party disputes, however, that the ADC eventually reassigned Castle to a WIPP job in the prison motor pool. Castle’s new job paid 50 cents per hour. Castle had been receiving more than $2.25 per hour picking tomatoes at Eurofresh.
After pursuing a grievance with the ADC, Castle filed a discrimination claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). After the EEOC issued Castle a Notice of Suit Rights letter, Castle brought suit against Eurofresh and the State Defendants.
In his initial complaint, Castle alleged that Eurofresh and the State Defendants violated his rights under Titles I and II of the ADA, Section 504 of the RA, and the Arizona Civil Rights Act, by failing to reasonably accommodate his disability. Cas-*905tie also claimed that Eurofresh had breached its contractual obligations with the State, which required that Eurofresh comply with all applicable federal and state employment laws.7 Castle sought money damages but did not request reinstatement at Eurofresh.
The district court dismissed Castle’s Title I claim against Eurofresh with prejudice. The court found that Castle lacked standing to sue under the ADA because, as a prisoner, he did not have an employment relationship with Eurofresh. The district court also dismissed Castle’s RA claim against Eurofresh, reasoning that Castle had not adequately alleged that Eurofresh is the direct or indirect recipient of federal financial assistance. Castle was given leave to amend his RA claim against Euro-fresh.
In the same order, the district court also dismissed Castle’s ADA and RA claims against the State Defendants. The court concluded that Castle could not state a claim under either statute because “plaintiffs own evidence shows that he was given a different work assignment [in the motor pool] — one that does not require prolonged standing and walking.” Castle was granted leave to amend his complaint against the State Defendants.
After Castle twice amended his complaint, Eurofresh and the State Defendants filed motions seeking dismissal of Castle’s remaining claims. The district court granted Eurofresh’s motion with prejudice, again concluding that Castle failed to adequately allege that Eurofresh received federal financial assistance. The district court denied the State Defendants’ motion, however, and ordered them to answer Castle’s allegations that they violated Title II of the ADA and Section 504 of the RA.
The State Defendants filed their answer in October 2010. In June 2011, the State Defendants filed a motion for summary judgment on Castle’s remaining claims against them. The district court granted the motion in November 2011. The court reasoned that the State Defendants did not violate either the ADA or the RA because: (1) the State Defendants lacked the power to reassign or otherwise accommodate Castle within Eurofresh; and (2) the State Defendants had accommodated Castle by reassigning him to a job in the prison motor pool. Castle timely appealed.
JURISDICTION AND STANDARD OF REVIEW
We have jurisdiction to review the district court’s entry of judgment under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review an order granting a motion to dismiss de novo. Cousins v. Lockyer, 568 F.3d 1063, 1067 (9th Cir.2009). “All well-pleaded allegations of material fact in the complaint are accepted as true and are construed in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party.” Faulkner v. ADT Sec. Servs., Inc., 706 F.3d 1017, 1019 (9th Cir.2013) (citations omitted). However, a complaint must allege “enough facts to state a claim to relief that is plausible on its face.” Bell Atl. Corp. v. Twombly, 550 U.S. 544, 570, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 167 L.Ed.2d 929 (2007). “A claim has facial plausibility when ‘the plaintiff pleads factual content that allows the court to draw the reasonable inference that the defendant is liable for the misconduct alleged.’ ” Faulkner, 706 F.3d at 1019 (quoting Ashcroft v. Iqbal, 556 U.S. 662, *906678, 129 S.Ct. 1937, 173 L.Ed.2d 868 (2009)).
We similarly review a grant of summary judgment de novo. Cameron v. Craig, 713 F.3d 1012, 1018 (9th Cir.2013). We “must determine whether, viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the nonmoving party, there are any genuine issues of material fact and whether the district court correctly applied the relevant substantive law.” Id. (quoting Lopez v. Smith, 203 F.3d 1122, 1131 (9th Cir.2000) (en banc)).
DISCUSSION
I. Castle’s ADA Claim Against Euro-fresh
Title I of the ADA prohibits discrimination “against a qualified individual on the basis of disability in regard to ... [the] privileges of employment.” 42 U.S.C. § 12112(a) (emphasis added). Thus the first question we must resolve is whether Castle, an inmate required to work under Arizona law, had an employment relationship with Eurofresh within the meaning of the ADA.
The ADA defines an “employee” as “an individual employed by an employer.” 42 U.S.C. § 12111(4). A1 parties agree that Eurofresh is an “employer” under the ADA.8 But the parties vigorously dispute whether Castle was “employed” by Euro-fresh. While this specific issue appears to be one of first impression under the ADA, we do not write on a wholly blank slate: we, as well as a number of our sister circuits, have previously considered whether prisoners should be treated as “employees” under various other federal statutes.9
The leading case in our circuit is our en banc decision in Hale, 993 F.2d 1387. There, we addressed whether certain Arizona state prisoners were “employees” within the meaning of the FLSA. Id. at 1389-90. Like the plaintiff in this case, the appellants in Hale participated in labor programs administered by ACI for the purpose of implementing Arizona’s requirement that all able-bodied prisoners perform hard labor.10 Id. We concluded that the appellants were not “ ‘employees’ of the prison entitled to be paid a minimum wage under the FLSA.” Id. at 1395.
In reaching our holding in Hale, we first acknowledged the “general rule” that we must consider the “economic reality” of a labor relationship when determining whether it is an employment relationship under federal law. Id. at 1393-94. In this circuit, we typically evaluate the “economic reality” of a labor relationship by considering the factors laid out in Bonnette v. California Health and Welfare Agency, 704 F.2d 1465 (9th Cir.1983).11 In Hale, *907however, we determined that the Bonnette factors “are not a useful framework in the case of prisoners who work for a prison-structured program because they have to.” Hale, 993 F.2d at 1394; see also Vanskike v. Peters, 974 F.2d 806, 809 (7th Cir.1992) (noting that the Bonnette factors are useful where “it is clear that some entity is an ‘employer’ and the question is which one,” but not where the question is more basic: can prisoners “plausibly be said to be ‘employed’ in the relevant sense at all”). We concluded that “[r]egardless of how the Bonnette factors balance ... the economic reality of the relationship between the worker and the entity for which work was performed lies in the relationship between prison and prisoner. It is penological, not pecuniary.” Hale, 993 F.2d at 1394-95; see also Gilbreath v. Cutter Biological, Inc., 931 F.2d 1320, 1331 (9th Cir.1991) (Rymer, J. concurring) (reasoning that “inmate labor belongs to the institution”).
A few years after Hale, in Coupar v. Department of Labor, 105 F.3d 1263 (9th Cir.1997), we once again had the opportunity to consider a prisoner’s employment status under federal law. Douglas Coupar was a federal inmate obligated to work as a condition of his sentence. Id. at 1264. Coupar filed environmental complaints against the government corporation where he worked, claiming that he subsequently faced discrimination in violation of the whistleblower provisions of the Clean Air Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act.12 Id. We found that Coupar was not protected by either statute. Id.
Coupar relied on Baker v. McNeil Island Corrections Center, 859 F.2d 124 (9th Cir.1988), to argue that he was an employee for the purposes of obtaining whistle-blower protection. Coupar, 105 F.3d at 1266. In Baker, we left open the possibility that a prisoner could state a claim for employment discrimination under Title VII, and remanded to the district court for further findings regarding the precise labor relationship between the plaintiff and his jailors. See Baker, 859 F.2d at 128 (holding that it was not “beyond doubt that no set of facts could be proven to entitle Baker to relief’). The plaintiff in Baker, however, had not alleged that the position he sought was “one that fulfilled a prison work requirement.” Coupar, 105 F.3d at 1266. Coupar, on the other hand, was obligated to work — just like the plaintiffs in Hale. We found this to be the crucial fact that “differentiate^] Baker from Cou-par’s case.” Id. Consequently, we held that where an inmate is obligated to work at some job pursuant to a prison work program, “[tjhat fact [alone] brings him within the rule of Hale.” Id. at 1265.
Like the plaintiff in Coupar, Castle cites Baker for the proposition that he should be treated as Eurofresh’s employee under the ADA. But as we did with the plaintiff in Coupar, we must reject Castle’s claim: Castle “was obligated to work at some job pursuant to a prison work program,” id., and this fact alone brings Castle’s claims within the rule of Hale.13 Baker is inappo-site.
*908We are equally unpersuaded by Castle’s other attempts to distinguish this case from Hále and Coupar. For example, Castle notes that he worked for a private corporation, while the plaintiffs in Hale and Coupar toiled for government-controlled entities. Castle further argues that one of the supporting rationales for the Hale decision is not present here, because the purpose of the ADA is different than that of the FLSA.14 While these distinctions have some substance, they are ultimately irrelevant. Coupar identifies one factor that triggers application of the Hale rule — an inmate’s legal obligation to work. That factor is indisputably present in this case. The absence of other elements, therefore, has no bearing on Castle’s standing under the ADA. Castle is not Eurofresh’s employee under the ADA because his labor belongs to the State of Arizona, which put him to work at Eurofresh in order to comply with its statutory obligations. See Hale, 993 F.2d at 1395; Coupar, 105 F.3d at 1267.
II. Castle’s RA Claim Against Euro-fresh
“The Rehabilitation Act is materially identical to and the model for the ADA, except that it is limited to programs that receive federal financial assistance .... ” Armstrong v. Davis, 275 F.3d 849, 862 n. 17 (9th Cir.2001) (internal quotations omitted), abrogated on other grounds by Johnson v. California, 543 U.S. 499, 504-05, 125 S.Ct. 1141, 160 L.Ed.2d 949 (2005); see also Gilstrap v. United Air Lines, Inc., 709 F.3d 995, 999 (9th Cir.2013). The district court dismissed Castle’s RA claim against Euro-fresh because it concluded that Castle could not plausibly allege that Eurofresh received federal financial assistance, either directly or indirectly. We find no error in the district court’s conclusion.
In United States Department of Transportation v. Paralyzed Veterans of America, the Supreme Court held that Congress intended to strictly limit the scope of the RA solely “to those who actually ‘receive’ federal financial assistance.” 477 U.S. 597, 605, 106 S.Ct. 2705, 91 L.Ed.2d 494 (1986), superseded by statute on other grounds, Air Carrier Access Act of 1986, Pub.L. No. 99-435 (1986). The Court explained that “[b]y limiting coverage to recipients, Congress imposes the obligations of § 504 upon those who are in a position to accept or reject those obligations as a part of the decision whether or not to ‘receive’ federal funds.” Id. at 606, 106 S.Ct. 2705 (emphases added); see also Greater L.A. Council on Deafness, Inc., v. Zolin, 812 F.2d 1103, 1111 (9th Cir.1987) (recognizing that the RA “does not prohibit discrimination against the handicapped as such; it simply bars the use of federal funds to support programs or activities that so discriminate”). Consequently, while those who affirmatively choose to receive federal aid may be held liable under the RA, liability will “not extend as far as those who benefit from it,” because application of § 504 to all who benefit economically from federal assis*909tance would yield almost “limitless coverage.” Paralyzed Veterans, 477 U.S. at 607-08, 106 S.Ct. 2705.
Castle argues that Eurofresh is the indirect recipient of federal financial assistance. Specifically, Castle contends that ACI is a direct recipient of federal financial assistance, and that Eurofresh indirectly receives federal financial assistance through its contract with ACI, which provides that ACI, and not Eurofresh, will pay Social Security and Medicare taxes on the wages of Eurofresh’s prison laborers. These allegations are insufficient to survive a motion to dismiss.
First, it is unclear what connection, if any, exists between ACI’s receipt of federal funds and its decision to assume responsibility for the federal tax liabilities related to Eurofresh’s use of prison laborers. But even if such a connection exists, it is not enough to establish Eurofresh’s liability under the RA. To state a claim, Castle must do more than simply show that Euro-fresh benefits from federal monies — he must show that Eurofresh has affirmatively chosen to “provid[e] employment for the handicapped as a quid pro quo for the receipt of federal funds.” Id. at 605, 106 S.Ct. 2705; see also Nat'l Collegiate Athletic Ass’n v. Smith, 525 U.S. 459, 468, 119 S.Ct. 924, 142 L.Ed.2d 929 (1999). This Castle has not done. Indeed, Castle has presented no evidence that Eurofresh affirmatively chose to receive federal monies, and in so doing accepted the concomitant responsibilities of complying with certain federal mandates, such as those contained in the RA. See Paralyzed Veterans, 477 U.S. at 605, 106 S.Ct. 2705 (placing substantial emphasis on the “contractual nature of the receipt of federal moneys”). Nor has Castle plausibly alleged that Eu-rofresh is the intended recipient of federal funds, and that ACI is a “mere conduitf ] of the aid to its intended recipient[ ].” Id. at 607, 106 S.Ct. 2705. Because Castle has not alleged facts which plausibly demonstrate that Eurofresh receives federal financial assistance, Castle’s RA claim against Eurofresh was properly dismissed.
III. Castle’s ADA and RA Claims Against the State Defendants
We next consider the potential liability of the State Defendants. The State Defendants may be liable under Title II of the ADA even though Eurofresh may not be sued under Title I. See, e.g., Disabled Rights Action Comm. v. Las Vegas Events, Inc., 375 F.3d 861, 883-84 (9th Cir.2004) (noting that plaintiffs often sue multiple defendants under separate titles of the ADA); Johnson v. City of Saline, 151 F.3d 564, 571-72 (6th Cir.1998) (“Even though the [private] businesses may be subject to Title III of the ADA ... the city is simultaneously subject to Title II because it is a landlord.”). Moreover, unlike Eurofresh, the State Defendants cannot plausibly deny that they receive federal financial assistance, and thus they are obligated to comply with the RA.
The State Defendants concede, as they must, that Title II applies to the operation of state prisons. See Penn. Dep’t of Corr. v. Yeskey, 524 U.S. 206, 213, 118 S.Ct. 1952, 141 L.Ed.2d 215 (1998) (“[T]he plain text of Title II of the ADA unambiguously extends to state prison inmates.”). Consequently, State Defendants must ensure that disabled prisoners are not discriminated against with regard to the provision of “the benefits of [their] services, programs, or activities” on account of a prisoner’s disability. 42 U.S.C. § 12132; see also Yeskey, 524 U.S. at 210, 118 S.Ct. 1952 (finding that prison vocational programs are “benefits” of a public entity). Nevertheless, the State Defendants contend that Title II does not apply in this case, because “[the State Defen*910dants] had no authority to determine which jobs or job duties were available to inmates at Eurofresh, nor could they overturn [Eurofresh’s] decision to refuse a request for a job modification.” The State Defendants are mistaken.
In Armstrong v. Schwarzenegger, 622 F.3d 1058, 1065-67 (9th Cir.2010), we rejected the State of California’s argument that it could not be held liable for ADA violations committed by county jails that were housing state prisoners pursuant to contracts with the state. We found it wholly irrelevant that the ADA violations occurred at county jails, rather than at state prisons under California’s immediate control. Rather, we clarified that Title II’s obligations apply to public entities regardless of how those entities chose to provide or operate their programs and benefits. See id. at 1065 (“[A] public entity, in providing any aid, benefit, or service, may not, directly or through contractual, licensing, or other arrangements, discriminate against individuals with disabilities.” (quoting 28 C.F.R. § 35.130(b)(1)) (emphasis added)).
The State Defendants admit that ACI contracts with Eurofresh to provide “benefits” to state inmates, including paid labor and vocational training. The State Defendants are free to enter into such contracts, and likely reap numerous benefits from such arrangements. But one benefit State Defendants may not harvest is immunity for ADA violations: State Defendants are obligated to ensure that Eurofresh — like all other State contractors— complies with federal laws prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability.15 See Armstrong, 622 F.3d at 1065-67; see also Henrietta D. v. Bloomberg, 331 F.3d 261, 286 (2d Cir.2003) (“All governmental activities of public entities are covered, even if they are carried out by contractors. For example, a State is obligated by [T]itle II to ensure that the services, programs, and activities of a State park inn operated under contract by a private entity are in compliance with [T]itle II’s requirements.”) (citation omitted). The same principle applies to RA violations committed by contractors. Henrietta D., 331 F.3d at 286 (holding that a state is “liable to guarantee that those it delegates to carry out its programs satisfy the terms of its promised performance, including compliance with the Rehabilitation Act”). The law is clear — the State Defendants may not contract away their obligation to comply with federal discrimination laws.
Nevertheless, we cannot determine on this record whether a violation actually occurred in this case. Federal law requires public entities to “make reasonable modifications in policies, practices, or procedures when the modifications are necessary to avoid discrimination on the basis of disability, unless the public entity can demonstrate that making the modifications would fundamentally alter the nature of the service, program, or activity.” 28 C.F.R. § 35.130(b)(7). Determining whether a modification is reasonable (or even required) is necessarily a fact-specific inquiry, requiring “analysis of the disabled individual’s circumstances and the accommodations that might allow him to meet the program’s standards.” Wong v. Re*911gents of Univ. of Cal., 192 F.3d 807, 818 (9th Cir.1999). Specifically in the prison context, we have held that a district court may consider “with deference to the expert views of facility administrators, a detention or correctional facility’s legitimate interests (namely, in maintaining security and order and operating an institution in a manageable fashion) when determining whether a given accommodation is reasonable.” Pierce v. Cnty. of Orange, 526 F.3d 1190, 1217 (9th Cir.2008) (citations and internal quotation marks omitted).
Likely because the district court erroneously concluded that the State Defendants are not liable under either Title II or the RA, the court made insufficient findings regarding whether a reasonable modification was made. Instead, the district court simply concluded without analysis that Castle’s reassignment to a different job in the WIPP program was reasonable. While that may ultimately be correct, where the district court makes no findings regarding the reasonableness of a proposed modification or accommodation, we must remand to the district court to perform the necessary analysis. See McGary v. City of Portland, 386 F.3d 1259, 1270 (9th Cir.2004) (citing Crowder v. Kitagawa, 81 F.3d 1480, 1485 (9th Cir.1996)).
CONCLUSION
Castle’s claims against Eurofresh were properly dismissed because Castle and Eu-rofresh were not in an employment relationship, and Eurofresh does not receive federal financial assistance. However, judgment was improperly granted to the State Defendants. The State Defendants are liable for disability discrimination committed by a contractor. We consequently remand to the district court to determine in the first instance whether such discrimination occurred.
Each party shall be responsible for its own costs on appeal. Fed. R.App. P. 39(a)(4).
AFFIRMED IN PART, REVERSED IN PART, AND REMANDED.
. Castle was released from prison on April 22, 2013.
. Throughout this opinion we refer collectively to the State, the ADC, and the individual defendants as the State Defendants.
. ACI is a statutorily created entity that operates under the "organizational auspices of the ADC,” but is funded solely "through its own operations.” See Ariz.Rev.Stat. § 41-1624. ACI describes its mission as creating "opportunities for offenders to develop marketable job skills and good work habits through enterprises that produce quality products and services for [ACI’s] customers.” Those customers have included firms that produce "clothing, fabricated steel, livestock, dairy products, and hotel reservations for Best Western motels.” Hale v. State of Arizona, 993 F.2d 1387, 1390 (9th Cir.1993) (en banc).
. The Department of Veterans Affairs has assigned Castle a 20 percent service-connected disability rating as a result of the accident.
. Defendants claim that Castle could not be reassigned to another job, such as a job in the pack house, because civilian workers were employed in those positions, and "the inmate-to-security personnel ratio was not adequate" to have inmates work alongside non-convict laborers. Castle disputes this claim, and contends that inmates regularly worked among Eurofresh's civilian employees in the pack house and elsewhere.
.Defendants acknowledge that the de-leafer position also requires walking and standing, but claim the job is less physically taxing than picking tomatoes because the carts used for the de-leafing job are lighter than those used by the tomato pickers.
. Castle only appeals the district court’s determinations regarding his ADA and RA claims.
. See 42 U.S.C. § 12111 (5)(A).
. See, e.g., Hale, 993 F.2d at 1395 (prisoner is not an employee under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)); Morgan v. MacDonald, 41 F.3d 1291, 1293 (9th Cir.1994) (same); Alexander v. Sara, Inc., 721 F.2d 149, 150 (5th Cir.1983) (per curiam) (same); Coupar v. Dep’t of Labor, 105 F.3d 1263, 1267 (9th Cir.1997) (prisoner not an employee within the meaning of the whistleblower provisions of the Clean Air Act and the Toxic Substances Control Act); Williams v. Meese, 926 F.2d 994, 997 (10th Cir.1991) (prisoner not an employee under Title VII or the Age Discrimination in Employment Act). But see Baker v. McNeil Island Corr. Ctr., 859 F.2d 124, 128 (9th Cir.1988) (prisoner potentially an employee under Title VII); Carter v. Dutchess Comm. Coll., 735 F.2d 8, 14 (2d Cir.1984) (prisoner may be an employee under FLSA).
. The appellants in Hale worked for ARCOR Enterprises, ACI’s predecessor entity. See Hale, 993 F.2d at 1389.
. Those factors include "whether the alleged employer has the power to hire and fire the employees, supervises and controls employee work schedules or conditions of employment, *907determines the rate and method of payment, and maintains employment records.” Hale, 993 F.2d at 1394 (citing Bonnette, 704 F.2d at 1470).
. Those provisions state that "[n]o employer may discharge any employee or otherwise discriminate against any employee with respect to ... compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment” because the employee engages in protected activities related to the enforcement of the Acts. 15 U.S.C. § 2622(a) (Toxic Substances Control Act); 42 U.S.C. § 7622(a) (Clean Air Act).
. Castle argues that he did not “work for a prison-structured program because he had to,” and notes that he had a choice whether or not to work for Eurofresh. This argument misses the mark. While Castle did not have *908to work for Eurofresh specifically, he was nevertheless obligated to work for some prison-structured labor program. See Ariz.Rev. Stat. § 31-251(A). In any event, we rejected the same argument in Coupar. See Coupar, 105 F.3d at 1265. ("Although Coupar did not have to work for FPI in particular, as an inmate he was obligated to work at some job pursuant to a prison work program.").
. In Hale, we noted that the primary concern of the FLSA — ensuring laborers’ minimum standards of living — "does not apply to prisoners, for whom clothing, shelter, and food are provided by the prison.” Hale, 993 F.2d at 1396.
. We note with interest that while State Defendants disclaim this obligation on appeal, ACI’s contract with Eurofresh explicitly requires Eurofresh to comply with all federal and state employment laws, including the ADA. In district court, Castle alleged that Eurofresh breached its contract for failing to comply with such statutes. The court dismissed this claim, reasoning that Castle had not alleged elements necessary to establish himself as a third-party beneficiary. Castle does not object to that dismissal on appeal and we express no opinion on the matter.
