Ep #123: Immigration Enforcement & Employers | A HIT-chat with Attorney Matthew Meltzer
What happens if I.C.E. shows up at your workplace? Whether you’re running a private business or a public-facing company like a restaurant, it’s critical to know your responsibilities, your rights, and your company’s official policy.
I sat down with Matthew Meltzer, Immigration Attorney and Co-Founder/Partner at Meltzer Hellrung, for an essential conversation on what every employer needs to know about immigration enforcement, deportations, and I-9 compliance in today’s environment.
In this episode, we cover:
- What to do if I.C.E. shows up at your business
- How to prepare and communicate a company policy
- Who should (and shouldn’t) speak with immigration officers
- Updates on I-9s, hiring best practices, and compliance
- Why every employer needs to “put on their employer hat” when it comes to immigration issues
Politics aside, this is about being prepared, protecting your people, and having the right systems in place.
