Five states, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Arkansas, and Tennessee, are targeted by the
United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for a workforce inspection.
One hundred and eighty employers received notices that ICE plans to inspect hiring records to determine whether they are complying with employment eligibility verification laws and regulations. The inspections are part of ICE's increased focus on holding employers accountable for their hiring practices and efforts to ensure a legal workforce.
Employers are required to complete and retain Form I-9 for each hired individual for work in the United States. Employers must review and record the individual's identity document(s) and determine whether the document(s) reasonably appear to be genuine and related to the individual.(workersxzcompxzkit)
In 2009, ICE implemented a new, comprehensive strategy to reduce the demand for illegal employment and protect employment opportunities for the nation's workforce. Under this strategy, ICE is focusing its resources on the auditing and investigation of employers suspected of cultivating illegal workplaces by knowingly employing illegal workers.
