To help employers, the California Chamber of Commerce has put together a web page with links to federal, state and CalChamber resources about immigration law.
Federal resources on the page include links to the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services I-9 Central; the M-274 handbook for employers; guidance for employers conducting internal employment eligibility verification Form I-9 audits; and the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Form I-9 inspection fact sheet.
California resources include links to the Department of Industrial Relations page explaining rights for all workers; joint guidance from the Justice and Industrial Relations departments about the Immigrant Worker Protection Act (AB 450); and the Civil Rights Department immigration rights fact sheet.
Also available are links to the Immigration Compliance for Small Businesses webinar presented by the California Office of the Small Business Advocate, in conjunction with CalChamber and the CalChamber Small Business Policy Council; articles from CalChamber Alert and the HRWatchdog blog; and Public Counsel frequently asked questions (FAQs) on nonprofit and small business rights with respect to immigration enforcement.
CalChamber member resources include the “Preparing for Potential Immigration Enforcement in the Workplace” webinar; the HRCalifornia Extra article on employment-related immigration rules in the spotlight; the Form I-9: Verifying Eligibility from the HR Library on HRCalifornia; and the Immigration Enforcement Checklist.
For resources employers may provide to employees, the page includes links to the California Collaborative for Immigrant Justice, California Rapid Response Networks; and the Immigrant Legal Resource Center’s Step-by-Step Family Preparedness Plan.
