As the United States becomes
increasingly enmeshed in global markets, growing numbers of persons will
enter this country from foreign lands to work in our numerous industries.
Therefore, the probability is high that your client or your company will be
confronted with immigration issues.
Immigration Law, as it relates to the employment sector, is complex,
technical, highly political and rapidly changing. Management must
necessarily do all it can to insulate the company from liability under the
immigration laws. Yet, the courts and the Immigration and Naturalization
Service (INS) provide employers only minimal guidance in negotiating the
slalom course of workplace-related immigration laws, rules and regulations.
Congress has enacted major immigration legislation that affects the hiring
and retention practices of all employers. New standards for verifying
employees' eligibility to work are embodied in the I-9 Employment
Verification Form.
