Ashley Kaplan, Senior Employment Law Attorney at ComplyRight, recently shared some tips for companies who wish to ensure they are compliant with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Any company could be subject to a surprise audit, but those in sanctuary city or work in construction, agriculture, restaurant or hospitality are more likely to be audited. She suggests double checking paperwork by filing the correct I-9 form and maintain records. Kaplan also recommended avoiding discrimination against an employer who is questionable by performing an I9 audit on all individuals. A company can protect its rights by limiting the scope of an unannounced ICE investigation and employing best practices, such as training a single employee to act as point person with the Department.
