In this episode, JoDee and Susan talk to labor law attorney (and frequent guest) Gina Carrillo about U.S. employers’ immigration responsibilities.

Topics include:

• Immigration responsibilities that apply to every U.S. employer, even if they never sponsor a foreign worker
• The biggest immigration compliance mistakes organizations are making right now
• How the current administration’s increased enforcement efforts have changed the risk landscape for employers
• What an HR team should do if they discover errors during an internal I-9 audit
• Advice for organizations using E-Verify
• What employers should have in place so they can respond confidently if ICE shows up in their workplace

In this episode’s listener question, we’re asked how to handle “earn and burn” employees who take their PTO immediately after earning it. In the news, the Office of Personnel Management has awarded a major HR IT modernization contract to Oracle.
