It's virtually impossible to avoid news about illegal immigration in the workplace. The headline "Immigration Crackdown" screamed from the front page of February 27th's Wall Street Journal, and the news within was just as shocking. Federal agents weren't just seizing illegal workers and sanctioning companies anymore; instead middle and upper management are confronting the legal consequences-and the serious financial penalties-for knowingly hiring illegal workers. The moral of stories like this one is clear; No company, no matter how small or large, can afford not to know whether their employees are legally able to work in the United States.
What impact does this have on the law-abiding employer? Verifying your employees' legal status is clearly necessary.
