SUMMARY:How Employers Can Avoid Discrimination in Form I-9
DESCRIPTION:This Webinar will discuss how we can avoid discrimination in Form I-9 and will be presented by Sara-Daisy Dygert. The Immigrant and Employee Rights (IER) section in the Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice enforces the anti-discrimination provision of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) 8 U.S.C. § 1324b. This law prohibits employers from discriminating based on citizenship\, immigration status or national origin in hiring\, firing\, recruitment and referral for a fee\, and during the Form I-9 and e-Verify processes. This presentation will: \n\nProvide an overview of employer obligations under the anti-discrimination provision of the INA;\nIllustrate how employers can avoid committing unlawful employment discrimination based on citizenship status or national origin;\nTeach best practices in order to avoid discrimination and common pitfalls that can lead an employer to violate the anti-discrimination provision of the INA; and\n\nGive helpful resources for future questions and further guidance.
