Overview
In today’s regulatory environment, businesses must be prepared for unexpected workplace enforcement actions by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Even with the best internal practices regarding the verification of employee work authorization documentation, the DHS may still investigate a workplace. These enforcement actions, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), or Customs and Border Protection (CBP) audits and workplace raids, can disrupt operations, create civil and criminal liabilities for companies, owners, managers, and employees, and significantly impact your workforce.
Our Employers' Rapid Response Team is designed to provide immediate, strategic support when every moment counts by:
- Minimizing disruption to your operations.
- Protecting your employees and business interests.
- Ensuring compliance with immigration laws.
- Reducing potential penalties and liabilities.
