The Department of Injustice Office of Special Counsel for Immigration-Related Unfair Employment Practices is objecting to non-US citizens being targeted because of their citizenship status. The investigation found that Nebraska Beef required non-US citizens to present specific documentary proof of their immigration status to verify employment eligibility.
MOTHER OF GOD
CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT ?
A US Company verifying employment eligibility?
WAIT, IT GETS BETTER
The Department of Injustice claims that this could constitute a violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act because its anti-discrimination provision prohibits employers from making documentary demands based on citizenship when verifying an employee's authorization to work.
ARE WE INSANE?
Apparently so... Nebraska Beef was slapped with a $200,000 civil penalty and must set up an uncapped back-pay fund to compensate individuals who claim they lost wages due to an inability to prove they were eligible to work in this country...AND Nebraska Beef will be required to undergo compliance monitoring for two years, train employees on the anti-discrimination provision of the INA, and revise policies in its office.
WE'RE NOT JUST INSANE
HAPPY LABOR DAY!
