st: heckman selection model with endogenous covariates

Dear users,
Am interested in estimating a lbor demand equation as follows:
ln_labor=alpha + b1_X + b2_treatment
Since some respondents do not use hired labor, i specify the probability of
using hired labor as:
prob(labor)=b3_Z + b4_treatment
and then estimate the two equations jointly following heckman selection
approach.
My concern is that the treatment variable in both equations is potentially
endogenous. Anyone with an idea of how I can address this potential
endogeneity within the framework of heckman selection models?
